The right rooms. The right people. The right tools — for every step of the journey, including the ones you haven't thought about yet.
Access is by application. Privacy is yours to control.
"Too many serious founders and investors are held back
not by their ability — but by their access.
We built Yorkseed to fix that."
Most platforms are built for one side of the table. Founders only. Investors only. We built Yorkseed after watching the entire global venture ecosystem up close — what was working, what was broken, and what was missing for every player in it.
Serious founders struggle to raise — not because they aren't ready, but because their local ecosystem has no relevant capital, and the signal they're trying to send gets buried in noise. In a world where warm introductions are everything, cold outreach rarely lands. The right investor is out there. Getting to them is the problem.
On the other side, investors face the same wall from the other direction. Quality deal flow is hard to find when you're drowning in pitches that don't fit your thesis, your stage, or your sector. The great founders exist. Finding them — reliably, efficiently, across markets — is what's broken.
And the networks that were supposed to solve this? Built for one side. Local by default. Passive in design. A database of people hoping someone else makes the move.
Yorkseed is the answer to both sides at once — the first multi-directional platform where founders get to the right investors, investors find quality deal flow, and every other player in the ecosystem has infrastructure built specifically for their role. Not everyone gets in. Membership is approval-based, reviewed by our team, and re-verified every year — because the integrity of this network is the product.
One platform. Six distinct roles. Purpose-built for each — with full privacy controls and member-controlled introductions across all of them.
Whether you're raising your first round or scaling revenue, Yorkseed gives you the tools, the network, and the privacy to move on your own terms.
Access deal flow from vetted, active founders — on your terms. Control your visibility, accept only the intros you want, and evaluate investments with the right infrastructure.
Browse deal flow, evaluate fund managers, and use every tool on the platform — with complete control over your visibility. Stay fully private while enjoying the full benefit of the network.
Give your Circle and portfolio companies access to the full Yorkseed ecosystem — tools, network, and global activations — as a program benefit. Each member keeps full control of their own profile.
Every tool is designed for a specific job in the venture lifecycle. No other platform has assembled this toolset. Included with Core and above.
Yorkseed is not a marketplace you scroll. It is curated infrastructure with intention at every step.
Applications are reviewed to preserve signal quality. Tell us your role, what you're building or investing in, and what you need from the network.
Stage, sector, thesis, geography, check size — your profile powers the matching engine. Choose exactly what to show and who can see it. Full privacy controls and 2FA security from day one.
Send intro requests to members you want to meet. The other party must accept before any conversation opens. You control who can reach you — and who you're visible to — at all times.
Run your raise, evaluate deals, source LP capital, score an investor, decode a term sheet — 13 purpose-built tools inside one environment.
Join curated gatherings at SXSW, Web Summit, Davos, VivaTech, GITEX, and 25+ other conferences. Yorkseed activates where the ecosystem moves.
Every introduction, every tool run, every event — deepens your position in the global ecosystem. Access and trust build over time, not overnight.
Not a startup community. A scaled global venture operating layer — built from the ground up since 2023.
Permanent city hubs plus live activation at the world's most important conferences — Yorkseed is in the rooms that matter.
From a SXSW spreadsheet to a global venture infrastructure platform — in three years.
Joining Yorkseed during CES 2025 turned out to be one of the best decisions I made that week. Yorkseed immediately provided structure, context, and most importantly, the right people. I was placed in a thoughtfully curated group — through Yorkseed's WhatsApp groups, I gained access to more than 100 high quality events. Yorkseed is not just a network. It is a trusted ecosystem.
Becoming one of the first members in August 2023 changed the trajectory of my company and my growth as a leader, unlocking opportunities that would not have been possible without this community. I would recommend any entrepreneur join Yorkseed — this is a community that genuinely wants to see others succeed.
I knew 0 people when I came to Paris. Through Yorkseed I made family. Not to mention the tools that would probably take ages of googling and trusting to be done in seconds. It helped me not only for my business but also for my mental health — which I think matters the most in this founder world.
Yorkseed has been incredibly welcoming and supportive as we stepped into the French startup ecosystem. Visiting Station F and attending partner events led to meaningful conversations, honest product feedback, and made navigating a new market as a Hong Kong-based team feel much less daunting.
Jessica and the Yorkseed community has been an exceptional resource for me personally and professionally. The organization of events and community management help make this a fantastic place to meet great people. Jessica is truly a force of nature whose combined professionalism, energy and insight make Yorkseed truly an exceptional community.
Since 2023, I've connected with great minds around the globe, in travels, and across industries. It has greatly refined my perspective on networking. I've found partners, supporters, and friends.
The right investor exists. The right founder exists. Getting to them — without the noise — is what Yorkseed is built for. Every application is reviewed. Every member is re-verified annually. If you are serious about what you are building or deploying, this is where you belong.
