Hi, Cofounder

An IRL cofounder search for founders and builders looking for someone to build with. The series brings ambitious people together to share the problems they want to solve, explore early ideas, and find potential cofounders.

Q1 2027
the experience

meet through how you think

Small-group activities and decision-making prompts give people a chance to understand one another’s working styles. How do you make a call when speed and quality pull in different directions? What happens when you disagree?

Come curious, open-minded, and ready to participate. Applications are reviewed before approval.

There’s no pressure to join anyone or any project at the event. The goal is to leave knowing who you want to keep talking to.

past gatherings

October 7, 2026

San Francisco

It was a full house of founders and builders working in AI, B2B SaaS, consumer products, and marketplaces. They met in industry groups to discuss their ideas and the people they needed to build with. That common ground helped people get past introductions and get to know potential cofounders beyond their skills and experience.
