Orchestrate a diverse portfolio of events-from intimate dinners and happy hours to fireside chats (80+ attendees), hackathons (150-200 people), panel discussions, and larger conferences. Manage end-to-end event logistics, including venue selection, guest lists and invites, vendor management, catering coordination, sound/AV, security, janitorial services, and guest experience. Build and maintain relationships with vendors, venues, and service providers. Track event metrics and gather feedback to continuously improve experiences and ensure follow-up. Develop a network tracking system to identify and engage key relationships for events and partnerships. Maintain and enhance relationships with venture capital firms and limited partners.
