RECAP

Our events just keep getting bigger and bigger!

We officially set another attendance record!!! Thank you to more than 500 of you who registered for our Together event last night, where we saw the future of tech, current innovators, investors, and aspiring builders come together to learn from the experts and each other, in real life.

The evening was highlighted by our speakers who spoke on a wide range of topics including growth in the healthcare space, using AI and key factors that every Founder should understand, and building and exiting a company.

A huge thank you to Mahshid Yassaei (Tali AI), Noah Godfrey (The Real Human Project), Kevin Kliman (Humi), and Simon De Baene (Workleap) for joining us on stage and sharing valuable knowledge with some aspiring founders and builders.
