Codédex Presents: Gen Z Builders Networking Nite

Our biggest IRL event of the year is here! 🍎 Codédex is hosting a popup in NYC – and you're invited. Join 150+ Gen Z builders, CS students, recent grads, aspiring entrepreneurs, and curious minds from across New York City and the tri-state area for an evening of tech, community, and good vibes. We’re bringing together Codédex + Shopify for a nite designed for the next generation of technologists: a candid fireside chat on building a startup, guided networking with other young builders, and plenty of ways to meet your next collaborator, friend, or co-founder?! And there are SO much more: 📸 LinkedIn headshots + Codédex photobooth 🔥 Limited edition Codédex hats and shirts 🎨 DIY tote making station + keycap fidgets 😋 Free food + drinks 🛍️ Bonus: Shopify Dev merch for everyone! Come for the tech. Stay for the people. Leave with new friends, new ideas, and probably way too much swag lol. Fireside Chat speakers Sonny Li - Founder & CEO @ Codédex Asiqur Rahman - Founding Engineer @ Codédex Ellie Popoca - Curriculum Developer @ Codédex (facilitator!) They will share their experiences building a consumer startup from the ground up, the challenges they encountered, and their perspectives on what it takes to build in 2026 and beyond. The convo will be followed by an audience Q&A. RSVP ASAP! Spots are filling up quickly and you don't want to miss this. It'll be a great time with even better company!
