"The event provided me with so much growth and value as a founder. Sincerely, it was truly one of the best eComm oriented conferences I’ve been to. I have never taken so many notes at an event in my life; so many conferences I've been to really only focus on companies that are basically like $15-20m+ and a lot of the talking points simply aren’t relevant because the resources that companies at that stage have are massive in comparison to companies like mine."

"Grow New York brought together some of the most innovative eComm brands in what felt like an authentic place for me and my team to connect with other founders, executives, brands, and influencers. Our team was impressed with all of the panel content with topics tackling real and timely issues for eComm startups. It was honestly one of the most well organized and informative conferences we've attended (and we go to a LOT of conferences!)."

"Attending this one-day event is a no-brainer. Last year, I saw quite literally every single D2C brand I’ve ever heard of in attendance, whether it was speaking on stage or walking around wearing their company swag (who knew Prose made tote bags?). I even met the CEO of one of my favorite swimwear brands in, of all places, the women’s bathroom. My point being: 1000+ trendsetting D2C founders, marketers, and online growth experts attend this conference. If you’re not in attendance, odds are your competitors likely are, and you’ll miss a major opportunity to learn and have your brand seen. "

"We are a young team that is constantly looking for new connections and mentors to help us drive growth, and the people here seem to be perfect for just that. The D2C start-up world is extremely competitive and it's great to be part of a community where people really want to help each other out. I think everyone here is trying to make more meaningful connections, and it's working."

"This is a phenomenal network of like-minded business people, each with a unique perspective but linked by common threads of creativity, helpfulness and empathy. I've already been able to tap into a dozen brands and have found great value from the community. It's a real game-changer!"

"Thank you so much for a great conference. I had a ton of wonderful conversations with people after my talk — people I genuinely wanted to meet and talk to, not just people selling me stuff. The experience of being a speaker was seamless and a true pleasure. I’ve done a lot of public speaking and sometimes it’s a cluster... and this was the opposite. Great operations, great communication, and great connections."
