Founders Alley San Diego: ANNEX
Founders Alley San Diego: ANNEX is an immersive, high‑intent experience designed for founders who thrive under pressure and investors who value clarity, conviction, and real‑time decision‑making. Hosted at 222 North City in San Marcos, the event brings together builders, operators, ecosystem partners, and capital providers in an environment engineered for meaningful conversations rather than polished decks.
An ANNEX event is an intimate exclusive event smaller than our larger annual convening. ANNEX event challenges founders to pitch on the fly — no slides, no scripts, just presence and readiness. Small rooms and curated interactions create a high‑signal atmosphere where every conversation matters. Attendees gain access to strategic partners, emerging ventures, and investors actively seeking what’s next in Southern California’s innovation landscape.
The evening includes a guided site tour of the North City development, networking zones, founder showcases, and hospitality elements that encourage authentic connection. ANNEX is where founders prove they’re ready — and where relationships that shape the region’s startup future begin.
