About this event
Good product conversations rarely happen in isolation. Techie Tapas by Remedy Product Studio & DataPower Ventures is an in-person New York meetup built for people who want sharper thinking, stronger connections, and real conversations about building in tech. If you spend your days shaping products, working with teams, or navigating fast-moving ideas, this is a room designed to feel immediately useful. About the Event At its core, Techie Tapas is a community meetup centered on the people behind product and technology work. The name suggests exactly the right energy: a mix of focused conversations, varied perspectives, and a format that invites people to sample ideas, exchange lessons, and meet others doing adjacent work. This event brings together the worlds of product, tech, community, and networking in a way that feels practical rather than performative. Instead of forcing a rigid conference-style experience, the setup is better suited to authentic interaction: meeting new people, hearing how others approach similar challenges, and finding common ground across roles and stages. Hosted by Remedy Product Studio and DataPower Ventures, the event is likely to attract attendees who care deeply about building, decision-making, and the realities of working in modern tech. That makes it a strong fit for anyone looking for substance in the room, not just volume. Because it is happening in person in New York, the experience also benefits from something digital events struggle to replicate: momentum. Quick introductions turn into longer conversations. Casual exchanges can lead to future collaboration. A single evening can open up new relationships that continue well beyond the event itself. What to Expect Expect a meetup atmosphere that balances structure with flexibility. This is the kind of event where you can arrive ready to talk shop, compare notes with peers, and leave with a clearer sense of what others in the ecosystem are actually working on. You can likely expect a mix of: Informal networking with people across product and tech Community-driven conversation rather than one-way presentations Peer exchange around common challenges, opportunities, and ideas A social, approachable environment that makes it easier to start meaningful conversations If you are someone who gets the most value from real dialogue, this format works in your favor. You do not need to prepare for a full-day commitment or navigate a packed agenda. Instead, the event creates space for useful interactions: the kind where you can ask follow-up questions, test a perspective, or hear how someone else handled a problem you are actively facing. The evening timing also matters. A 6:00 PM EST start makes this feel accessible for people coming from work, side projects, or other commitments. It is positioned as a chance to shift out of the workday and into a more open, collaborative mode without losing the professional depth that makes attending worthwhile. Why Attend The strongest reason to attend is simple: the right room changes what you learn. When you are surrounded by people who care about products, technology, and building communities, even a short conversation can sharpen your thinking. This event is valuable if you want to: Expand your network beyond your immediate team or company Meet thoughtful people in product and tech in a lower-pressure setting Hear different perspectives on how others approach building, prioritization, and growth Reconnect with the local ecosystem in New York through a community-oriented event Create opportunities for future collaboration with peers, founders, operators, or builders There is also value in attending events that are broad enough to expose you to new viewpoints, but focused enough that the conversations stay relevant. Techie Tapas sits in that sweet spot. It is not trying to be everything for everyone; it is bringing together people with overlapping interests who can actually learn from one another. For anyone who has felt that many networking events are either too shallow or too transactional, this meetup offers a more grounded alternative. The combination of product, tech, and community makes room for practical conversations about work while still leaving space for curiosity, serendipity, and the human side of professional relationships. Practical Details Date: Tuesday, February 25 Time: 6:00 PM EST Location: In person in New York, USA Because this is an in-person event, plan for the advantages that come with showing up early: easier introductions, more relaxed conversation, and a better chance to settle in before the room gets busy. If networking is one of your goals, arriving on time is one of the simplest ways to get more out of the evening. This event is best approached with a clear mindset rather than a complicated plan. Bring your curiosity, a concise way to talk about what you do, and a willingness to ask good questions. The most useful interactions at meetups like this often start with something straightforward: what you are building, what you are exploring, or what challenge is currently top of mind. If you are based in New York or simply want to connect with people in its tech and product community, Techie Tapas offers a practical reason to step out and be in the room. One evening, one city, and a focused group of people can go a long way when the conversations are the right ones.
