Founders Fireside & Workshop: The Unglamorous Side of Building | Women in AI

​At some point between building and fundraising, there's a pile of stuff nobody told you about. Payroll. Bookkeeping. Whether your contractors should actually be employees. Banking that doesn't make you want to cry.

​Most founders figure it out the hard way.

​This is a small event designed to shortcut that. A founder or investor who's seen what kills companies opens with a short talk, then you rotate through working sessions on the stuff that's actually on your plate. You'll tell us what that is when you register.

​Expect a room of 80 founders who are figuring out the same things you are, people who've been through it, and tools that can actually help.

​Who should come: Seed to Series A. Still figuring some of this out. Willing to be honest about what's broken. In town for Startup Grind? Come extend the week.
