Founders, Builders, and Friends
Building a start-up is painfully difficult, and doing it alone makes it excrutiating. We got tired of dull, uninspiring, low-signal events and spaces - so we created spaces where Founders can truly find connection and belonging - where we can plug-in and get s**t done, plug out to reconnect with our purpose, and build meaning relationships with our founder friends.
Work, eat, and play with founders. Plug out in nature, plug into the grind.
This is Foundertown - our inaugural Founder retreat: a curated gathering of cracked builders.
We’ve booked out five private lodges* at the Landal Hexham Lodges Resort for 24 founders to step away from the noise to reset, have fun, dive into deep work, plug out, and touch grass with other founders building world changing start-ups. If you’re a founder with big ambitious and the work ethic to match, you’ll want to be here.
Each lodge comes with everything you need: comfy rooms, shared living space, and close proximity to nature. The lodges can be secured as a whole or you can take individual rooms.
*Only 3 lodges (9 spaces) left, so act fast
The plan is simple:
Get into nature.
Work on what matters.
Bond with people who get it.
Your ticket covers EVERYTHING - meals, travel from London, accommodation, workshops and more...
All you need to do is show up.

🧐 Who’s coming?
This isn’t a free-for-all, we’re carefully curating the guest list. The best experiences are formed from the right group of people sharing space.
We’re filtering for outliers. This is what we’re looking for
Bias towards action: As soon as you know what to do, you get it done.
High agency: You’ve always been a self-starter. You don’t need motivation or permission to start.
Wickedly ambitious: You tell regular folk what you’re up to and they think you’ve lost your mind.
Tenacity: When the going gets tough, you get tougher. Only the grave will stop you.
Boldness: You’re not afraid to make a statement and stand out when you need to.
No aholes: You’re friendly, compassionate, fair, and kind. Nobody likes a party pooper.
You’ll be joined by the Plugged Founders Team and SuperTeam UK too!
