Founders Live New York City has issued a correction to its previously announced relaunch event date. Originally scheduled for June 26th, the event will now take place on Wednesday, June 24th, 2026, at 6:00 PM. The venue remains The Yard-Herald Square at 106 W 32nd St, New York, NY 10001. All other event details are unchanged.
The correction comes after a press release dated May 29th, 2026, inadvertently listed the wrong date. Organizers apologize for any confusion and assure that registered attendees do not need to take any further action beyond noting the updated date. The event is open to founders, investors, and anyone interested in New York City's startup ecosystem.

The relaunch of Founders Live NYC marks an important moment for the local startup community, providing a platform for early-stage entrepreneurs to showcase their ideas and connect with investors. The event's importance lies in its potential to foster innovation and collaboration within the New York tech scene, especially as the city continues to recover and grow post-pandemic.
