HQ: United States
Active Markets: United States
Problem Addressed
Facilitating connections between diverse professionals can be difficult to accomplish but often leads to innovative and productive partnerships. Creating community spaces and shared activities where these connections can be made increases the likelihood that members come together and invest in each other.
Project Description
Tech Runs facilitates connections and networking between diverse groups of individuals through a token-gated membership community. The organization also serves as an onramp for individuals to become involved in Web3. These connections offer new opportunities for membership to grow their personal and professional endeavors through exposure to others who they might not have otherwise met.
The club organizes digital and physical gatherings, with members representing a variety of fields from athletics, tech, venture capital, and creative spaces. Member benefits include sports-based wellness activities, educational content for brand development, events, and access to a network of community members. Tech Runs has hubs in Miami, Los Angeles, the Bay Area, and New York with plans to expand to cities like Atlanta, Chicago, Philadelphia, and DC. As a DAO, Tech Runs utilizes tokens to grant access for members, allowing them to vote, collaborate on the organization’s products and experiences, and have ownership over the project.
