Where founders meet in person
Three kinds of night, all at a table or in one big space. The Thursday dinners, every other Thursday in Vancouver, San Francisco and Los Angeles. The big nights, like Fall Feast. And the nights our partners host, which we list and recommend.
The Thursday dinners
Every other Thursday, a table of five sits down at 7pm at a restaurant we picked. Founders mostly, sometimes an investor or an operator, and every seat is vetted: a person reads each application, usually within a day, and there is no interview call.
We match the table by stage, industry and what you are trying to figure out this year. 24 hours before the night we confirm the restaurant and show you who is coming. You pay the restaurant for your own food, and there are no panels, no name badges and no pitching.
Members book the Thursdays they want in the app, and one membership covers every table in Vancouver, San Francisco and Los Angeles.

Show up and get to know the people at your table. You pay for your own food and drinks at the restaurant, and membership covers everything else.
The big nights, and the ones our partners host
Now and then we take over a bigger space for one night: short talks, drinks, and everybody in one place. Between those, partners we trust host their own nights, and we list the ones worth your evening.
Fall Feast
Thursday, November 5 · 6–11 PM · Another Studios, Vancouver
An evening with founders from across Vancouver at Another Studios in Mount Pleasant. A few of them give short talks, and the drinks are on the ticket.
Hosted by partners
Each one is hosted and ticketed by the partner, with their own RSVP. The full list, with the details, is on the partner events page.
