Tough Tech Operators Breakfast
Join us for a breakfast meetup of Tough Tech operators – folks across strategy, operations, and finance whose companies are tackling challenges across hardware, deep tech, and climate. Whether your title says COO, BizOps, Chief of Staff or “a little bit of everything,” this is a space for you. Come to make connections, exchange ideas, offer help, and commiserate.
To caffeinate the conversation, please come prepared with two Halloween themed topics
“Trick” → What’s something that’s been a total pain that you’d love to hear how other Operators have dealt with?
“Treat” → What’s something that’s been working really well for you lately that you’re excited to spread the word about?
Your hosts & fellow operators:
Alex Grant - Head of Operations at Foray Bioscience
Sid Radhakrishna - past finance & ops at Form Energy and commercial at Sora Fuel
Rhett Smith - VP of Operations at The Engine
