St. Valentine’s Runway & Gala: The NYFW Finale
Location: Tempo by Hilton Times Square, NYC
Spend your Valentine's Day surrounded by excellence. This is the definitive closing night of New York Fashion Week. We are taking over the Tempo by Hilton Times Square for a high-voltage evening where style meets chemistry.
Forget the standard runway this is a curated experience for the city’s movers and shakers. We’re bringing together founders, investors, and creatives for a night of high-level networking and expression. Whether you are scouting for a business partner or here to enjoy the art, the 11th floor has a beautiful view of Times Square to enjoy as the backdrop.
The night features three visionary designers bringing the heat to the runway:
Jesse Lee Designs
Dana Fashion Design (Natalie Skulska)
Pinchanski (Mijael G. Pinchanski)
With live performances by Special Surprise Guest to keep the energy peaking.

Sponsors should support St. Valentine’s Runway & Gala because it gives them real visibility and direct access to the right people.
Be seen at a standout NYFW moment. The event is positioned as a closing-night Fashion Week experience in the heart of Times Square.
Reach a curated audience. Attendees include founders, investors, creators, and tastemakers—people who influence what gets bought, funded, and shared.
More than a logo. Sponsorship includes on-site presence, speaking time, and placement across key event materials.
Clear promotion. Sponsors are featured in event listings and shared with the Propel Earth community and NYC audience before and after the event.
Strong content opportunities. Runway, performances, and a premium venue create high-quality photo and video moments sponsors can use on their own channels.
A straightforward return. Sponsors can drive awareness, collect leads, and build relationships in a setting designed for connection.
I’m Stephen Michael, a startup founder and community builder focused on connecting people who actually make things happen.
I run Propel Earth, a global community of founders, investors, creators, and service providers across six continents. I curate rooms with intention and I care deeply about execution, because trust is built on details. When I host an event, the goal is always the same: bring the right people together, create a high-quality experience, and make it easy for real relationships and opportunities to form.
A sponsor can trust me because I don’t overpromise and I don’t treat sponsorship like a logo placement. I treat it like a partnership. Your brand is presented professionally, your deliverables are handled reliably, and your goals matter, whether that’s visibility, customer growth, hiring, partnerships, or community goodwill.
This is the biggest event I’ve produced so far, and I’m committed to making it a clear win for the sponsors who help bring it to life.
