Franchisee Growth Forum Hosted by Brand Operators X Entrepreneur Media
Should you be in this room?
One hundred seats. One building. One working day.
Multi-unit franchisees are the reason the room exists. Everyone else is there as a peer.
Who's in the room
Emerging franchisees. Operators scaling their first units. Corporate operators going out on their own. Searchers buying in.
Established franchisees. Ten units and up. Multi-brand portfolio leaders, active acquirers, and the people the emerging cohort came to learn from.
Brand owners. Founder-CEOs of vetted franchise brands, sitting in the conversation rather than presenting to it.
Brand capital. Family offices and franchise-focused private equity. Equity, not loans.
Brand suppliers. Category-leading tools and services, invited as peers and vetted for fit.
There is no exhibit hall and no vendor speed-dating. Everyone in the room is a participant.
How the day works
Five cohorts of roughly twenty rotate through five conversations:
Finding Your Unfair AI Advantage
Funding Your Next Ten Units
Scaling Secrets
Building to Exit
Spotting the Next Big Brand
Each one is anchored by an operator who has actually done it, and co-hosted by a brand and a partner worth knowing. All of it is off the record.
Wednesday evening opens with Conversations Over Cocktails.
Your name tag carries a Secret, something you know that others don't, or a Sacrifice, something you did that others won't. That is how the conversations start.
Thursday is the working day. Five rotations, coffee one-on-ones, and a coach who stays with your cohort from breakfast to close.
What you leave with
Every operator's name. A shortlist of the ones worth knowing. One follow-up you committed to out loud.
