LARGEST EARLY STAGE VC FUND
Our cofounders Ben Sun and Brad Svrluga launched the Primary Summit in 2017 to showcase the excellence of New York City’s founders and catalyze the city’s emergent tech scene. Since then, NYC has become a powerhouse of the global tech community, and Primary Summit has become where that group convenes. We’re proud to host our flagship event in the city we call home, but Primary’s partners - Cassie Young, Jason Shuman, Brian Schechter, Rebecca Price, Sam Toole, Emily Man, Tobias Citron, and Jason Gelman - all now lead early stage deals around the world.
