Looking to start a founder peer group π«
Hey everyone! I'm looking to start a peer group for early-stage founders, ideally with the following:-Bootstrapping for now-Less than 2 years in -Digital business with some focus on community -Can meet morning ESTWe'd meet 2x/month to work through challenges and spark new ideas. Thanks!Edit: Email [email protected] if you're interested. Thanks!Full disclosure: I run a company that facilitates peer groups for entrepreneurs (https://www.hellofacet.com/), but I'm looking to create a group for me - sort of a testbed for new ideas/a format for me to get all the benefits of peer-to-peer too!
I am super into this and need it! Letβs connect!
What are your goals for your business? Venture backing at some stage?
My business is likely not right for traditional venture, but open to alternative funding sourcing - not bootstrapping forever.
Happy to participate/help. I recently raised seed funding as a co-founder of a community-based digital mental fitness startup, but Iβm full of ideas and have thought about, worked in, and invested in community-focused startups for most of my career. Based in SF, so ET mornings are tough. If youβre also looking for emotional support from peers along the startup journey, would love for you to give Pace a try for a season: https://pace.group/t/founders
I would love to be a part of this. I could used some advice and grow my network. π
I'm happy to facilitate. I run sessions and groups for women in tech via https://empowered-tech.com/ I'm scheduled to run a Female Entrepreneur Roundtable Series this month.
