All Your Links Are Belong To Us
Fikriyyah George

It’s February and love is right around the corner. Excuse us while we satiate our love of all things entrepreneurial in Brooklyn. OH YEAH!!

This month Red Hook was home to not one but two New York Fashion Week shows, the celebrated Alexander Wang and zingy Rachel Comey. The former joined with Uber, (the sometimes maligned) hail riding app, to bring fashionistas to Wang’s show. As we all know NYFW is usually held in the haughty clutches of Manhattan so who’d ever think that Red Hook, with its less prissy image would one day be a part of NYFW?

Feb 26 Startup Rock Climbing @ Brooklyn Boulders.

  • Finally a networking event without all the awkwardness of meeting new people as you imbibe a drink or two, instead you climb a rock wall. If you’re not athletically inclined, hated gym in high school with gangly legs, glasses and a slight limp this might not be the event for you. If you were athletic in high school this should be an event worth checking out. And we hate you.
  • Sponsored by Sheep Station who is providing a complimentary drink and happy hour prices for the whole night.
