RBS Startup Tour in Brooklyn, NYC

The Ron Brown Venture Lab is bringing the RBS tech community together to visit the startups and VC funds founded by Ron Brown Scholars in New York City. If you're a Ron Brown Scholar or Captain interested in tech, startups, or VC, we'd love you to join us! Here's the tentative agenda: Morning Visit the HQ of Honey Glow in Brooklyn (8-figure revenue skincare brand founded by Rusty Fields, RBS '17, and River Fields, RBC '21) Visit the HQ of Stellation Capital in Brooklyn (VC firm founded by Peter Boyce, II, RBS '08) Afternoon Lunch in Brooklyn with Tyrone Davis, III (Founder/CEO of YC company, Miyagi Labs) Visit the HQ of Doji in Brooklyn (founded by Dorian Dargan, RBS '07) Visit the offices of other RBS in tech (click here to see where they work now) The addresses for each stop of the tour will be shared with approved registrants closer to the event date. We will cover transportation between all the tour stops via ridesharing for Ron Brown Scholars & Captains; they're only responsible for getting themselves to the first stop on the tour and getting themselves home after the evening dinner.
