How to Find Buy-Side Internships

Does anyone know any new up and coming hedge funds/buy-side firms in New York that I could reach out to as a potential intern. When I search up firms in NYC , the only results are the largest funds. I am looking for a newer fund that was recently founded that would provide a more intensive work and learning environment. If not, would anyone know how to find firms such as this. I am currently majoring in finance and have previously had an internship as a credit analyst, finance/tech intern at a fintech web3 startup, and a finance and software intern at a company that has recently gotten valuated at over a billion. I am attending a top 10 business school in the nation.

I would really appreciate anyone's help.
