We know that experienced founders are a different breed. This isn't your first rodeo, and you likely appreciate the value of having a very patient partner or spouse.

This is a forum for you to have the kinds of conversations you won't find at a rooftop party with others who understand the entrepreneurial journey from start to finish.

There are no formal presentations or speakers; instead, the focus is on fostering organic interactions and discovering new best practices in a casual social setting.

This event is NOT for:

• early-stage founders
• the founder-curious
• service providers
• corporate warriors

We host a variety of events each month for our diverse audience. See our full calendar here and select the event that is most appropriate for your entrepreneurial stage.

Agenda

• 5:00 PM: Come and go as you please.

Drawing on experiences from Metaplane’s journey through Y Combinator, Kevin has honed the art of scaling trust in data — a critical element for businesses at any stage of growth.
