NYC Junto
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The New York City Junto is a monthly meeting which focuses on libertarianism, Objectivism and investing. The Junto was founded by host Victor Niederhoffer in 1985. The NYC Junto is inspired by the Junto hosted by Benjamin Franklin in Philadelphia from 1727 to 1757.
The meetings are usually held in Manhattan on the first Thursday of each month. Typically, a guest speaker is invited to speak to the group, which is followed by a Q&A session. Debate and questions are actively encouraged. Admission is free.
