Picnic with Builders at Stanford
What happens when you put Stanford’s builders, researchers, and startup minds around a picnic blanket with 19 ambitious founders building across healthtech, commerce, finance, AI, and deeptech?
We’re bringing the newest SF Startup Labs cohort to Stanford for an afternoon of food, ideas, and conversations with the Stanford community.
You’ll meet founders building everything from new biotech and healthtech platforms to AI commerce, financial infrastructure, enterprise software, and deeptech.
Among the group are repeat entrepreneurs, a Stanford × Google DeepMind hackathon winner, and teams already backed by some of Silicon Valley’s most respected founders and angels.
We selected just 19 companies from 500+ applications for this cohort, and for one afternoon, we’re bringing them to campus.
Come if you want to:
🌲 Meet founders tackling ambitious problems across healthtech, commerce, finance & deeptech
🧠 Swap ideas with people actively building and launching companies in the Silicon Valley
🔬 Discover technologies and startups you probably haven’t encountered yet
🤝 Meet potential collaborators, friends, advisors, customers, or maybe your next co-founder
The format
13:00 PM — Picnic starts + food
13:30 PM — Lightning intros: What are you building?
14:00 PM — Founder × Stanford conversations
No panels. No long presentations. Definitely no 20-minute startup pitches.
Just smart people building interesting things, sharing what they’re working on and seeing what happens.
Small and curated for SF Startup Labs founders and the Stanford community.
