Always Be Closing is nextNYC’s revenue and sales focused event. It’s an opportunity to connect startups with top NYC companies and organizations who can serve as potential customers. After all, that’s why so many startups decided to locate their businesses in this city!

We gather key decision makers in specific business areas who have shared their challenges and opportunities to run their businesses better. Startups will apply to get the opportunity to pitch their products and solutions in-person. Our partner companies may not have an obligation to work with you, but the opportunity is yours to lose!

The host for this event is SIM NY, the New York chapter of the world’s premier non-profit association for technology executives. We exist to empower today's leaders and inspire tomorrow's. SIM members collectively have decision making authority and influence over hundreds of billions in annual technology spending and oversee the work of hundreds of thousands of technology professionals around the world.
