Walking Mastermind: Beyond Networking for Community Leaders & Founders
🚶♀️🚶🏽 Start Your Day With a Walk & Talk That Leads to Real Conversation
This is a structured Peer-to-Peer conversation experience designed for founders & leaders in our ecosystem to build meaningful connections while walking (with structure).
Walking Mastermind is a community-focused experience that gives founders, leaders, and ecosystem members space to step away from the day-to-day grind, explore a topic together, and get to know one another — all while walking.
Research shows that walking side by side, rather than sitting face-to-face, increases comfort and openness, even between people who don't already know each other. We use that to our advantage.
Instead of a crowded room and small talk, you get fresh air, a peer, and a real conversation about what you’re actually navigating right now.
This monthly event is led by Noa Ronen, CEO & Founder of ADVAgo.co.
ADVAgo creates intentional space for Peer-to-Peer conversations that strengthen collaboration across teams, organizations, communities, and beyond.

📍 FORMAT
This Month we will meet at the Cary Founded lobby and move through a lightly structured experience:
→ Quick warm-up: Quick icebreakers and intro of this month's topic
→ Paired for walking conversation with 1-2 people for a 20-minute walk, guided by light prompts to keep the conversation moving naturally
→ Group reflection: quick takeaways from your walk & talk
→ Continue the conversation upstairs at Cary Founded for additional connection and networking
Feel free to bring your coffee for the walk through downtown Cary.
Leave with a new perspective, a meaningful connection, and perhaps a conversation worth continuing.
