/ About this event

Calling peninsula and South Bay solo founders: Most of Tech Week pulls everyone north. But a lot of the people building and backing companies in the Bay Area actually live and work in the South Bay. This founder dinner is based in Cupertino CA and

Solo, Not Alone is a complimentary steak dinner for up to 14 solo founders, with a small number of investors who genuinely enjoy working with founder-led companies. No marketing spam, just a long table, a proper dinner, and honest conversation about building without a cofounder.

This room is for: • Solo founders actively building a technology company • Investors with a real interest in solo-led companies and an active connection to the South Bay • People who will add to the conversation, not work the room

6:30 pm Arrive and settle in 7:00 pm Dinner 8:30 pm Dessert and open conversation 9:30 pm Goodnight

Applications are reviewed individually. Capacity is intentionally limited, and an RSVP request is not a confirmed seat. The exact Cupertino address will be shared only with accepted guests.

Hosted by Kept. We may welcome one aligned dinner partner, with acknowledgment kept to a simple thank you rather than a sales pitch.

This event is part of #SFTechWeek, a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at www.tech-week.com.
