​A Private, Invite-Only Gathering for Scaled Ecom Brand Founders

​It’s a closed-door room for people who are already operating brands at a high level that want honest, peer-to-peer conversations with others who understand the weight of real decisions at scale.

​Anchoring the Room

​The conversation will be anchored by an intimate panel by a small group of experienced operators who have built and scaled iconic brands utilizing Amazon, DTC, TikTok, & Retail.

​These founders are not presenting decks or selling frameworks. They’re participating in the room, sharing context, answering questions, and engaging in candid discussion alongside other operators.

​What the Conversation Will Focus On

​• What breaks as brands move past $30M–$50M
• How leadership and decision-making change at scale
• TikTok & Retail expansion to anchor your ecom growth
• The challenges that don’t show up on podcasts or panels
• What operators are cutting, and where they are spending

​The Setting

​The gathering will take place in Los Angeles overlooking the water views, reserved exclusively for this group. The afternoon will open with a Meet & Speed session, designed for high-signal, one-on-one introductions before the group comes together. The panel discussion will then move into an intimate, architecturally stunning setting built for exactly the kind of honest conversation this room is meant to hold.

​Format & Notes

​Attendance is limited and vetted.
Founders and operators only.
No vendors, no solicitation, no pitching, no plus-ones.

​The format is simple: arrive, connect, sit with peers, and talk honestly. After the closed-door session, those who wish can continue the conversation over drinks during an informal post-event gathering.

​Good food and refreshments will be provided throughout.

​This room is for founders who don’t need access, tactics, or validation — but value signal, perspective, and time spent with peers who understand the stakes.

​If you belong in that room, you’ll know.

​Must be an operator of a serious ecom-focused brand or an MDS Member to qualify.
