A boutique StrictlyVC evening returns to New York's West Village on September 10 with Keith Rabois, Craig Shapiro, Jason Levien, Tristan Walker, Brynn Putnam, and Deven Parekh — covering AI, sports investing, community-building, venture economics, and politics, with cocktails, food, and networking throughout the night.

On September 10, StrictlyVC, TechCrunch's exclusive evening series, will return to New York's West Village for the first time in two years. The event is set to feature a lineup of notable figures, including Keith Rabois, Craig Shapiro, Jason Levien, Tristan Walker, Brynn Putnam, and Deven Parekh. Rabois, known for his bold opinions on venture capital, will share insights on founders seeking excessive funding and OpenAI's early $50 million investment in 2019.

Shapiro and Levien, co-hosting with StrictlyVC, will discuss sports organizations as business investments. Walker and Putnam, both successful startup founders, will speak about reshoring American craftsmanship and the future of board games with AI. Parekh, Insight Partners' long-time New York-based investment firm, will discuss the evolving landscape of asset classes and the challenges of competing in a commodity-driven market.

The night promises an engaging mix of drinks, hors d'oeuvres, and networking opportunities with industry experts from various outlets.
