​Join us on Thursday, 22nd January, for the next Antler Next-Gen event.

​Who is it for?

​The Antler Next-Gen community is built for exceptional operators at VC-backed companies who are driven to become founders.

​You might not have taken the leap yet, but you have conviction that you will.

​We’re looking to build an incredible community of operators across Engineering, Product, Operations, and Commercial functions — typical roles include CTO, Senior Engineer, Head of Product, Chief of Staff, COO, GTM Lead and more.
