Hiring

Fundraising & investor matching

Leadership

Managing yourself and the people around you as things get real.

In the room

How it comes together

Roundtables

Small, honest sessions on one topic at a time — hiring your first exec, prepping a Series A, saying goodbye well.

Quarterly dinners

A proper table, a small group of founders, no pitches, no press. Just conversation and food.

Founder-only board

A Reddit-style space where founders can ask, share and answer without the outside world watching.
