The two are inextricably linked, and a perpetual cycle of test-learn-adapt is the key to ensuring that each reinforces and amplifies the other. Karl has had an exceptional career leading companies to successful outcomes, so find out how he does it.

In April 2022 I didn't know anything about starting a company; when and how to raise, who to raise from, and how much to ask for. Fifteen months later I had raised $100M over three rounds of funding. I made a lot of mistakes along the way, but also ended up in a pretty good spot for the company. This talk will share what I learned along the way from talking to other founders about their experience, doing hundreds of calls with VCs, and sheer necessity and dumb luck.
Where experienced founders go to up their game
I enjoyed how well planned and executed the event was. Court’s presentation was relevant and actionable
I really loved how welcoming the vibe felt from the moment I arrived.
It was awesome
The event was great! Highlight: Encouragement of diverse viewpoints and good founder mix
I think the breakout sessions are a loose but useful way to get people talking about challenges and resolutions.
I was initially hesitant to join yet another group as there is no shortage of people claiming to help entrepreneurs, but Court Lorenzini and FounderNexus are the real deal. Any serious founder will benefit immensely from joining Founder Nexus.
Great event, I learned a lot! Looking forward to next one
FounderNexus fills a gap for entrepreneurs by complementing traditional incubator and early investment programs with a high-quality peer founder network.
I also felt a sense of real community for the first time as a founder. You're all onto something special here!
I have attended events nationwide and joined so-called “MasterMind” groups, but nothing comes close to the network and support I have experienced at FounderNexus.
If you're an experienced venture-scale founder that's passionate about growing your local entrepreneurial community and likes being at the center of things, we'd love to connect. We've got everything you need to get a local chapter started.
