We’re on a mission to gather New Yorkers building a better NYC

2026 dates coming soon…

Applications Currently Closed

See NYC gathered 150 New Yorkers this past fall for a three-day, summer camp-style experience dedicated to building a better, brighter NYC, and guess what?

New Yorkers spoke, and we’re listening. It’s time to double down on our efforts. Stay tuned for plans for See NYC 2026.

Why See NYC? New York is a beacon for cities everywhere — but there’s no gathering that truly centers its innovation, impact, and the people driving it forward. SEE NYC is a place to learn, build new relationships, deepen existing ones, and spotlight the work already shaping the city’s future.

Forget standard panels and talks. SEE NYC invites participants into a curated mix of experiences: bespoke site visits, intimate dinner parties, and visionary fireside chats that spark curiosity and connection as we move through the city.

We’ll create space for in-depth conversations that tackle real issues and center imagination. You’ll leave with a renewed sense of awe for New York and our communities.

While the daily programming will take place across the city, this is a staycation concept designed to foster connection with our nightly home base (TBA).
