All 6 senior investors confirmed. Part of building rooms is making sure real capital is present. Six investors actively deploying writing capital will be joining. Our first confirmed: Why we do this: Putting active investors in the same room as exceptional founders, and keeps the room small enough to ensure everyone actually meets. We value intentional networking & community. If you're here to meet the best of the best, this is the room. Why we do this Our intent is simple: bring good, smart humans together, put active investors in the same room as incredible founders. Intentional community has been lost. We're rebuilding it.
