What you likely need
You'd get the most out of Festival events that put you in the room with seed and Series A investors who back sustainable commerce and circular economy startups, where your Forbes 30U30 badge and prior Aparkoo exit give you instant credibility. Curated intro dinners connecting you to NYC-based retail-tech funds like Lerer Hippeau and Notation Capital, plus roundtables with fellow female founders in the Unicornias orbit, would directly accelerate your raise and team-building. Smaller, high-trust positioning sessions with journalists and founders who've landed TechCrunch features would help you build the third-party narrative Sharpei AI needs right now.
