About Event

We're thrilled to announce the next chapter in our series of extraordinary off-site gatherings for Europe’s leading builders and investors.

This time, we head to the foothills and glaciers of the Alps for a curated, high-trust experience in the stunning Piedmont region of Northern Italy as well as Charmonix, co-hosted with our dear friends Paolo Pio from Exceptional Ventures and Itxaso del Palacio from Notion Capital.

For our treks, we've partnered with the very best: a former special forces commando and one of the world's leading female mountain guides. Together they bring an exceptional blend of elite leadership, resilience, and stories forged through years of real-world operations in the planet's most demanding environments.

You’ll have full control over the intensity—choosing exactly how far you push yourself physically and mentally throughout the trek—allowing you to challenge your limits at your own pace while creating an extraordinary space for deep reflection, meaningful connection, and profound personal renewal.

What to Expect

  • Multi-day treks & fireside talks

  • Group size is limited to ensure depth of connection and quality of experience

  • Slow meals and meaningful conversations

  • No panels, no pitches—just open, honest dialogue among peers

  • A chance to reflect on a life in tech, the road ahead, and the people you want to walk it with.

Optional +1: We warmly welcome partners, spouses or friends—some of our hosts will be bringing theirs, others won’t—and the experience is fully open to all who wish to join.
