For founders building ambitious tech companies, and the investors backing them early.
Turing Founder Dinners: Dublin
Ten founders. One table. One real conversation.
We're bringing together a small group of founders we genuinely like and rate for some drinks, a meal, and a chat.
There are only 10 seats. Apply to join us if you’re building a scalable product company with real traction (customers, revenue, investment) and want to connect with peers. Founders who’ve built and sold a company are very welcome too.
About the Turing Founder Dinners
Since 2018, we've hosted almost 40 dinners across Edinburgh, London, Manchester, Dublin, and Berlin - fun and interesting evenings where exceptional founders connect as people first, founders second. Each dinner is also a way into something bigger. Everyone who shares the table joins the Turing Founder Community: a private network of founders and operators who’ve been through it, with invitations to future dinners and gatherings, and a group of peers to call on when it matters.
How we select
Every application is reviewed by our team. We curate each table for the conversation, balancing stage, sector and experience, so we can’t offer everyone a seat, including some strong applicants. If you’re earlier stage, our Turing Founder Mixers are built for you.
Our Partner
RBC Brewin Dolphin has been a trusted partner of Turing Fest since 2022. As a leading global wealth manager working closely with founders and operators, they understand the financial realities that sit alongside building a company. A member of their team will join the dinner as a co-host.
Please note: this is a peer network for founders and senior execs at scalable product companies only. Agencies, consultancies, service providers and investors are not eligible.
