Dating Lab NYC presents:

Are Dating Apps Optimizing for the Wrong Outcomes?
An official Venture Week New York event at PubKey

Dating Lab NYC is a monthly interactive discussion series exploring the psychology, culture, & technology shaping modern connection.

Each gathering combines a research-informed presentation, open conversation, an anonymous audience survey, & time to connect with other curious New Yorkers.

This month, we'll examine how dating-app algorithms define compatibility & whether they are designed to support meaningful relationships or simply keep us engaged.

Presented & facilitated by Becky Berg

Becky is a behavioral researcher with a master's degree in clinical psychology from Columbia University. She has studied romantic relationships at Columbia's Couples Lab & NYU's Love Smarter Lab & now conducts independent research on dating-app users & how technology facilitates modern connection.

Schedule

6:30 PM - Drinks, food, introductions, & anonymous audience survey
7:00 PM - Presentation & interactive discussion
8:00 PM - The Room Report, followed by networking until 8:30 PM

In partnership with the Cohort

The Cohort is a community of builders, creatives, & founders who show up for one another through genuine accountability, meaningful support, & honest feedback. Its goal is to foster a culture of building & developing ideas in New York City.

Photography Notice

Photos & videos may be taken during the event & shared on social media or our websites. If you prefer not to be photographed, please let us know when you arrive, & we'll keep you out of frame.

This event is part of Venture Week.
