/ About this event

Coffee, breakfast and good people.

We’re bringing together a small group of DTC founders, ecommerce operators, retention marketers, and a few investors for an informal breakfast during SF Tech Week.

No panels. No pitches. No presentations.

Just a relaxed morning with people building and growing consumer brands.

Who’s coming

- Founders and operators at growing DTC brands - Ecommerce, growth, CRM, and retention leaders - A small number of consumer and commerce investors - Selected Shopify, Klaviyo, agency, and ecommerce ecosystem leaders

We’re keeping the group intentionally small so people can actually meet each other.

What you get

- First coffee or a breakfast drink on us - Light breakfast - A curated group of ecommerce operators - Real conversations with people solving similar problems - Introductions to people you actually want to meet
