Islanders, Justworks Helping New York-Based Startups Take Off

“It takes a special level of toughness to start and maintain a new business. We are pleased to join with Justworks to honor those companies who are grinding day in and day out to be successful.”

The New York Islanders have launched a program called Startup of the Month presented by Justworks. Each month, one local company is selected to receive a 14-person luxury suite at a select Islanders home game, a free pre-game happy hour at Barclays Center, and in-bowl LED advertising during the game.

Justworks founder and CEO Isaac Oates has an extensive background in the media/tech space, with stops at Amazon and Etsy before starting his own company. Since creating Justworks three years ago, he has raised more than $20 million in three rounds of venture funding.
