Womens SCALE SMARTER Founders Lunch FoundHER & FundHER in Burbank Monthly Founder Exchange
THE RIGHT ROOM CHANGES WHAT'S POSSIBLE.
Los Angeles is full of networking events.
This isn't one of them.
FoundHER & FundHER brings a carefully curated group of women founders, investors, and strategic partners together around one table for the conversations that can actually move businesses forward.
Not hundreds of people.
Not a room you have to work.
Not another stack of business cards.
A seat. A table. The right women. And enough time to actually know one another.
Because sometimes one conversation is all it takes.
The right introduction can become a customer.
A referral can open a door.
A founder can become a partner.
An investor can become a trusted relationship long before a raise begins.
And the woman sitting across from you may know exactly the person you have been trying to meet.
You won't know what connection is waiting for you until you take your seat.
FOR FOUNDERS
You don't need another room full of people asking, “So, what do you do?”
You need people who want to know:
What are you building?
Where are you going?
And what could help you get there?
Come ready to talk about your business, the opportunity in front of you, and what you need most right now.
Customers. Capital. Partnerships. Advice. Visibility. Referrals. Resources. Introductions.
Ask for what you need.
Then be ready to open a door for someone else.
FOR INVESTORS
Meet women founders before the relationship becomes a transaction.
Hear what they are building. Understand what drives them. Discover businesses you may not have encountered through the traditional deal-flow channels.
And build relationships with founders before they walk into the room asking for capital.
Meet the founder now. Know the company before the raise.
THE CONNECTION EXCHANGE
This is where FoundHER & FundHER is different.
Everyone at the table comes prepared to ask for something and offer something.
An introduction. A referral. Expertise. A resource. A partnership. A customer connection. An investor introduction. An opportunity.
We don't measure a successful lunch by how many people you meet.
We measure it by whether you met someone who matters.
COME PREPARED TO SHARE
Founders
You will have an opportunity to briefly share:
Who you are and the deeper reason you started your business
What you do and who you serve
What you need most right now
If you are currently raising capital, your stage of fundraising, if you choose to share
One practical way you can support someone else at the table
Investors & Strategic Partners
Please be prepared to share:
Your investment focus or areas of interest
What excites you about founders and emerging businesses
The kinds of introductions, expertise, or resources you enjoy providing
How founders can best continue the conversation with you
THERE WILL NEVER BE THIS EXACT TABLE AGAIN.
Every FoundHER & FundHER gathering brings together a different combination of women, businesses, experience, resources, relationships, and opportunities.
That's why we intentionally keep the room small.
Not to make it exclusive.
To make it meaningful.
We are not trying to fill a ballroom.
We are trying to fill the right table.
And the person who could change what happens next in your business might already have a seat at this one.
Don't wait to meet her at the next event.
Reserve your seat.
PLEASE NOTE
Your ticket reserves your seat.
Lunch is available for individual purchase at the venue.
Attendance is intentionally limited to protect the quality of the conversations and connections.
Tickets are non-refundable and non-transferable.
A MESSAGE FROM LISA MCCARTHY, FOUNDER OF FOUNDHER & FUNDHER
I am thrilled you’re considering joining one of our Los Angeles-based events. This community was created with YOU in mind.
Because we focus on high-quality experiences and meaningful connections, our events are intentionally limited in size. We offer monthly founder lunches across Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley, intimate Food and Philosophy Dinners for women founders every other month, and educational events for women in business throughout the year.
The community is slated to expand throughout Orange County, Pasadena, and beyond, with more virtual opportunities to come.
I look forward to meeting you and supporting your business efforts!
