Founders On The Pitch
Founders on the Pitch ⚽️
Start the morning with soccer, coffee, and good company alongside a curated group of 25 founders and leaders across GTM, growth, marketing, community, and events.
This is designed to be a more active alternative to the typical networking event. We’ll have the field reserved for 90 minutes of soccer, followed by networking in the lounge.
Playing is completely optional. Coffee and bagels will be available in the lounge throughout the morning, so feel free to play the full 90 minutes, jump in for a few games, or skip soccer entirely and come to connect.

8:00 AM — Doors Open: Coffee, bagels & introductions
8:30–10:00 AM — Soccer: Friendly games on the pitch
