The Founders’ Forum: Unfiltered Conversation
Santa Monica
·
Blake Executive Advisory, Datasent, Women in AI Club
Welcome to the conversation where nothing is off limits. In this intimate, founder-led session, we’re cutting through the noise to talk about what actually moves the needle in early-stage startups— from keeping culture strong as you scale fast and building go-to-market traction, to making your first key leadership hires (and fixing the ones you rushed) to structuring your cap table for long-term success.
Part salon, part tactical download, and all real talk — this is a space for honest conversations about the hard parts of company-building. Led by a veteran executive coach who works with Silicon Valley’s most driven founders, this session invites you to drop the armor and learn from each other.
Expect: raw insight, actionable takeaways, and connection with others who are building what’s next.
