Limited to a small group of DC BLACK members
Next December, a small group of high-level founders will gather in New York City to work through meaningful business and personal challenges, gain perspective, and close the year with clarity and momentum.
DC BLACK NYC is designed to be simple, value-driven, and intentional:
Bring a problem — have it challenged.
Show up — we’ll take care of the rest.
Experience the city — and leave sharper than you arrived.
This will be our fourth year hosting DC BLACK in New York. Each time, the city delivers: deeper conversations, stronger relationships, and a sense of reset heading into the new year, especially during the holidays.

Why New York City?
It is one of the most inspiring cities in the world. It's a place shaped by ambition, creativity, risk, and reinvention.
Hosting DC BLACK here at the end of the year creates space to reflect on what has been built, recalibrate direction, and reconnect with what matters next alongside peers who understand the weight of those decisions.
More details on the event, coming soon.
