4THBIN is proud to spotlight our partnership with Macktez as their Tête à Tech event series returns for its third year. Known for bringing together innovative thinkers across technology, science, business, and the arts, this thoughtfully curated series creates space for meaningful dialogue and fresh perspective in an intimate setting.

As part of our ongoing collaboration, we are excited to offer members of the 4THBIN community a complimentary ticket to attend these conversations. In addition, attendees will receive 10% off their next pickup with 4THBIN, making it easier than ever to stay connected while prioritizing secure and responsible technology practices.

Hosted at Macktez’s East Village office, each event features Macktez CEO and Founder Noah Landow in conversation with a distinguished guest. Together, they explore the “why” behind today’s most important ideas before opening the discussion to the room over drinks and snacks. The result is an engaging and often surprising experience designed to spark curiosity and connection.

With several events still ahead this season, there are multiple opportunities to join the conversation.

May 7 — Art and Money Need Not Be Strange Bedfellows

Ruby Lerner, Founder of Creative Capital, is widely recognized for reshaping arts philanthropy by building sustainable career paths for creators. In this conversation, she and Noah will discuss what it truly takes for art to thrive in the modern era.
