SEEN Summit Brings Fundraising Practice to Brooklyn’s Startup Community

A fundraising story has to survive questions about traction, defensibility and the use of capital. SEEN Summit will give New York founders several ways to work on those questions at Industry City on November 5.

SEEN SUMMIT 2026 is scheduled for 9:30 AM EST to 7:30 PM EST (America/New_York), Industry City, 220 36th St, Brooklyn, NY, US. Public ticket applications require organizer approval.

The announced program

Visible Hands’ announced program has three parallel tracks: panels, practical workshops and activations. Panel topics include fundability across B2B, consumer and hardware companies, plus defensibility in the age of AI. Workshops cover the narrative before the pitch deck, investor relationships and pre-raise financial readiness.

A question to bring

Bring the part of your fundraising case that still needs work, whether that is a traction argument or a use-of-funds model. The current public ticket listing requires organizer approval, so confirm admission before making plans.
