Philadelphia, PA – April 23, 2025 — Kommunity, the locally-built events marketplace on a mission to make connections more intentional, is proud to announce a new partnership with Philadelphia Startup Leaders (PSL)—a long-standing leader in the region’s innovation ecosystem. As part of this collaboration, PSL will begin hosting all of its events through the Kommunity platform.
This partnership reflects a shared commitment to creating meaningful, data-informed experiences that foster real community—not just RSVPs.
I told y’all I was over Eventbrite. They thought I was playing,” said Isabelle Kent, CEO of Philly Startup Leaders.
Philly Startup Leaders partnered with locally-founded Kommunity Events Marketplace, part of Founder Institute - Keystone’s alumni, to bring more intention-driven community connections. Why do I like Kommunity? It fosters continuous connection, which we loved when we had Meetup, AND it’s more economical than Eventbrite.
The switch away from traditional event tools like Eventbrite was driven by PSL’s desire for more flexibility, better economics, and deeper insights into community engagement. With Kommunity, organizers can not only host and promote events but also capture attendees’ intentions—why they’re showing up—which helps tailor experiences and forge more meaningful relationships.
With Kommunity, attendees can leave a note on why they’re attending the event and we can use that data to make complimentary connections and inform future programming,” Kent continued.
Amaury Abreu—Kommunity’s founder—is one to watch. He’s got that je ne sais quoi that the most successful startup founders have.”
As part of this collaboration, PSL will begin a phased migration of their events to the Kommunity platform, giving community members the opportunity to explore an enhanced way of connecting, collaborating, and growing together.
Organizers—give it a shot. It’s easy to use, offers better margins, and the intention-setting is super insightful,” Kent added. “This also gives us the power to follow or guide founders and technologists across the ecosystem so everyone finds the community they need to keep moving.
