YC Alumni gathered in SF's Duboce Triangle neighborhood at "The Detour" last night for an End of Batch Party hosted by Vouch, Arc, Fondo, Vanta, and Tandem

‍
The event brought together S24 founders and past alumni for an evening of food & drink, arcade games, and great conversation. It was the perfect way for the newest batch to connect with alums, exchange insights, and celebrate S24's hard work.

As the night unfolded, founders mingled and shared stories—sparking ideas and forming partnerships.

The YC community is as strong as ever 🦾

Welcome to the YC alumni network, S24!

‍Here's to S24 and all the amazing things they're going to build! 🍻
