Startup Networking San Francisco: Founders, Investors & Talent Mixer

San Francisco is full of founders. It's still easy to go a whole month without one real conversation about what you're building.
This Wednesday fixes the month.

Founders, investors, engineers, operators and the people who hire them, in one room. Name tags, themed tables, five short pitches, and an open floor until 10 PM.
You come with a problem. You leave with the names of people who've already had it.


🤝 What to expect
• Themed tables. You vote on topics when you register: fundraising, hiring, go-to-market, product. One table, one hour, instead of ninety-second laps of the bar.
• Five founders, five minutes each. Then the room asks the questions.
• Open floor. The hour after the stage is the one people remember.

👥 Who's in the room
• Founders, from first idea to Series A
• Angels and scouts from our investor base, approved on application
• Engineers, PMs and designers looking at their next team
• Operators and hiring leads from companies that are scaling
• People new to San Francisco who don't have a room here yet

Why it's different
Most networking nights end with a stack of LinkedIn requests nobody answers.
Here every guest is checked in at the door, every table has a topic, and the group chat for this Wednesday (In beta) keeps the second conversation going.
