Why the Founder Dinner? 🥳

I noticed a longing for community among fellow founders. In an effort to bring people together, I worked on creating a space where founders and executives could network, connect, and exchange war stories, all in hopes of inspiring and learning from each other. This initiative quickly evolved into a thriving community, fostering connections beyond the professional and creating a holistic network that became a cornerstone for professional and personal enrichment.

Founder Dinner #1

June 15, 2023 | Wayfare Tavern, San Francisco, CA

This is a celebration post. 🥂

To founders. You find your calling. You chase your dream. You forgo short-term gratification. You lay everything on the line. You give purpose to so many others who join you on your crazy journey. I'm one such beneficiary. 

I don't know where I'd be professionally (and, frankly, personally) if not for the numerous founders who inspire me on the daily. Last week, I hosted an intimate dinner for 26 of the best founders I know. Top-level builders and even better humans. We had a lovely time, and I hope they felt appreciated. 

Founder Dinner #2

Oct. 05, 2023 | 25 Lusk, San Francisco, CA

My good friend Ethan and I were humbled to host our 2nd Founder Dinner (after a successful inaugural Founder Dinner #1 in June). Twenty-six builders came together to support one another, share their journeys, and invest in the community we all want to foster. It was another night filled with candid conversations, actionable advice, and authentic encouragement.

And... we were treated to an incredible performance by Luba, who's not just a talented founder, but has a voice that makes your heart skip a beat.

Founder Dinner #3

Feb. 05, 2024 | Prospect Restaurant, San Francisco

Another Founder Dinner in the books!

 

Many returning guests, some new and exciting faces, and a whole lot of engaging convos around productivity and AI, team/culture building, selling into enterprises, finding PMF, sequencing of user acquisition channels...I could go on.

Couldn't have done it without my partner in crime, Ethan!

And even more so, none of this would have been possible without our wonderful founder friends who continue to invest time in this community.
