Fall Party 2026: MSIV’s Toast to Community

On October 15th, more than 200 members of the North Bay startup community joined us at La Crema Winery in Windsor for MSIV’s 6th Annual Fall Party, our biggest one yet.

Guests gathered in Richard’s Grove for an afternoon of live music, award-winning smash burgers, La Crema wine, and time to connect with founders, investors, mentors, and friends from across Marin and Sonoma. The afternoon kicked off with a guided wine tasting at La Crema’s main house, where guests sampled a few wines during one of the best times of year to be in Sonoma County: harvest season.

The Fall Party has become one of our favorite MSIV traditions and a chance to bring the full community together before the end of the year. Once again, our North Bay startup community showed up in a big way and for one another.

Huge thanks to Jackson Family Wines and La Crema for their incredible hospitality and for welcoming our community to such a beautiful property. They helped make the afternoon feel special, laid-back, and fun, exactly what we hoped for.

Thank you to our Founding Sponsor, Redwood Credit Union, Platinum Sponsors Bank of America and the Francoise O. Lepage Center for Global Innovation at Dominican University of California, and Gold Sponsors Cerity Partners, North River Company, Acrisure, Kaiser Permanente, and the County of Marin for their generous support in making MSIV’s 2026 community events possible.
