Founders, Funding & the Power of Narrative: A Fireside Chat with Goodie Nation + BrandSavor
Note: This event is at Goodie Nation's new office. Complimentary food and drinks will be provided
In today’s tech startup ecosystem, storytelling is more than a buzzword — it’s a business asset. And with the rise of AI, how founders craft, test, and amplify their stories is evolving in real-time. This fireside chat pairs Joey Womack (Founder/CEO at Goodie Nation) with Nikkia Adolphe (Co-Founder, Head of Strategy at BrandSavor) to unpack how narrative and AI are reshaping visibility, funding access, and founder identity. Through candid insights and real-world examples, this session explores how founders can harness both human insight and smart tech to stand out, attract capital, and build purpose-driven brands from day one.
As capital gets more selective and audiences grow more skeptical, founders must go beyond the pitch deck. Investors and customers alike are drawn to authentic, purpose-driven stories. This session meets the moment by offering founders a critical edge: a narrative that moves people and opens doors.
