Founder & VC Coffee Meetup @ Web Summit Lisbon

​Hey founders 👋

​
I’ll be in Lisbon for Web Summit, and I’d love to meet some of you in person. Let’s get together for an informal coffee hangout — no slides, no stage, no pitching required. Just real conversations about building, fundraising, navigating markets, and staying sane while doing all of that at once.

​This is a small community meetup for startup founders, operators, and anyone building something ambitious. If you’ve been following my content, investing thesis, or weekly breakdowns — this is your chance to say hi and connect with other people on the same journey.

​What to expect:

• ​relaxed conversation, zero agenda

• ​networking with other early-stage founders

• ​open Q&A: ask anything about fundraising, GTM, hiring, pivots, or investor psychology

• ​good coffee, good people, good energy

​Cost:
The meetup is free — just grab your own coffee/drink at the café.

​Who should join:

• ​founders (pre-seed → Series A)

• ​indie hackers & product builders

• ​deep-tech, SaaS , consumer — all welcome

• ​anyone who believes in building boldly

​Date & Time:
📅 November 11
⏰ 12:00 PM Lisbon time
📍 Café location: Open in Google Maps

​Registration:
Click Attend to join. Space is limited so we can actually talk, not just wave at each other across a crowd.

​Looking forward to meeting you IRL — let’s make this city a launchpad 🚀
