The Founders Circle: Happy Hour
The right room changes everything.
The Founders Circle is a private gathering for a hand-picked group of founders, builders and ecosystem leaders.
Hosted in partnership with TDIP and Growwise Partners, this intimate reception is designed for meaningful connection, high-quality conversation and the kind of introductions that are harder to make in larger rooms.
We hope to see you there.
