Vibe Your SaaS: Startup Pitch Competition + VC/Founder Mixer @ Entrepreneurs First
ATTN: This is not a “networking event.” It is a room full of people actually building the next wave of world-changing companies.
Speakers. Pizza. Zero alcohol. We are shipping companies, not hangovers.
Join hosts Gregory Kennedy (Vibe Your Saas) and Arjun Dev Arora (Advisor to Founders & VCs) for an invite-only VYS gathering in San Francisco of AI-first founders and forward-thinking VCs reshaping the future of software.
Hosted by
Entrepreneurs First (EF) turns exceptional individuals into funded founders. Some might have an early idea, others may need a cofounder. What matters is their potential. We back these founders first, then give them a bridge to Silicon Valley. To date, their companies are worth > $11B.
