Fridgeside! An evening with former Mayor Steve Adler (founders)

​For eight years, Steve Adler ran the fastest-growing large metro in America — a streak almost no city in U.S. history has matched. Now, in his new book Hot Seat — Hot City: The Austin Mayor's Story, Austin's two-term mayor pulls back the curtain on what it actually takes to lead a city through explosive growth.

​Mayor Adler makes a case every founder in this room will recognize: Austin's real superpower is its tolerance for risk — a city where the civic heroes are the ones who try, fail, adapt, and try again.

​As laid out in the book, Steve will talk about what really happened in the “Uber/Lyft” war, homelessness, police funding and race, and whatever else attendees want to raise.

​It’s available now on Amazon. He’ll sign copies if you bring one (and I have a few copies for our Fridge Members).

​Join us Fridgeside for drinks and a candid conversation with Mayor Adler.

​Happy hour from 5-5:45, Discussion 5:45-6:45, and more casual conversation after.
