NYTW 2026 Recap

A lunch, a sauna, a sober club, and a Friday night SoulCycle ride.

That was our New York Tech Week 2026.

We wanted to show what ionava does in practice rather than tell. The things you do to stay healthy—the fitness class, the sauna, the sober night out—generally don’t count for anything in the system you’re already paying into. ionava is a better way to pay for that everyday health work, and a way to prepare financially for the 'Big What-Ifs' at the same time.

So we spent the week doing the healthy stuff with people who were up for it. Here's how it went.

(P.S. If you have FOMO, no worries, we are at LA tech week in October! Stay up to date here.)

Monday June 1

Pre-Launch Healthy Lunch + Fireside Chat @ SoulCycle TriBeCa

To kick things off, we gathered over a healthy lunch with SoulCycle's Head of Brand & Experience, Melanie Griffith, and ionava’s founder & CEO, Jennifer (Azar) Burnham-Grubbs. We had an amazing fireside chat about breaking vicious cycles and building virtuous ones. It was the perfect space to introduce what ionava has been building to a room full of people who share the same values.

Your Lifestyle is Your Longevity @ The Maze

We teamed up with Yunara Life and The Maze, NYC’s first alcohol-free members social club, for an incredible open house and panel discussion focused on building a lifestyle around longevity. The energy in the room made it clear that the future of healthcare isn't just about managing sickness, it's about actively building a vibrant, connected community that keeps us thriving.

Self-Custody Starts with Health @ Othership

At this point in the week, people needed a moment to gather, and literally “sweat it out” together with a session at Othership in Williamsburg. To do so, we gathered ionava’s wellness community for a midday sauna and ice plunge session. It was incredible to see everyone step out of their comfort zones and put active wellness into practice.

Friday, June 5

VIP Friday Night Ride @ SoulCycle NoHo

We closed out the week with high energy, heavy bass, and a great workout. We took over a Friday night SoulCycle room for a VIP ride tailored specifically for people who take their health, money, and lifestyle seriously. Standing in a room packed with people who care just as much about their physical well-being as their personal growth was the ultimate conclusion to an unforgettable Tech Week.

What’s next?

We officially launch in October at LA Tech Week.
