Greetings Yorkseeder!

Today’s Hello is in Northern Sámi - Sami languages (indigenous to northern Scandinavia): "Bures" ! What’s cooking this week within the Yorkseed radar? The Yorkseed Passport Series is back for NYC Climate Tech Week + UNGA! 🌍✨

We’ve been giving out free access to our Master Side Event List for major conferences — and this time, we’d love to track how many people are using it.

📅 If you’ll be in NYC from Sept 15–30, grab your free list here:

They’re a private company, but Pacaso just reserved the Nasdaq ticker “$PCSO.”

No surprise the same firms that backed Uber, eBay, and Venmo already invested in Pacaso. What is unique is Pacaso is giving the same opportunity to everyday investors. And 10,000+ people have already joined them.

Created a former Zillow exec who sold his first venture for $120M, Pacaso brings co-ownership to the $1.3T vacation home industry.

They’ve generated $1B+ worth of luxury home transactions across 2,000+ owners. That’s good for more than $110M in gross profit since inception, including 41% YoY growth last year alone.

And you can join them today for just $2.90/share. But don’t wait too long. Invest in Pacaso before the opportunity ends September 18.

Invest While You Still Can
