During the week of Affiliate Summit East, YEC members gathered at Bond Collective’s event space, The Mezzanine, in New York City for the YEC Connections Summer Social. Co-hosted by Fueled by Culture (a lifestyle marketing suite bridging the gap between culture and technology) and Bond Collective (a company providing shared and luxury office space), the event brought together the most successful entrepreneurs and influencers in New York City.
