About Event

You're invited to a rare, behind-the-curtain fireside chat with Court Lorenzini, founding CEO of DocuSign and Kirby Winfield, founder and managing director at Ascend. This isn’t your typical startup storytime — we’re bringing two serial founders to the table who have taken two different paths to their success.

Together, they’ll dive into the unfiltered lessons few talk about:

  • When to walk away (and when to double down)

  • What actually changes post-exit

  • Investor games, team psychology, and founder longevity

  • And the hard-earned truths between company 1 and company 4

This fireside is not a keynote. It’s a real-time exchange between two battle-tested founders with very different vantage points — one post-exit, one mid-build — exploring what’s changed (and what hasn’t) about building enduring companies.

✅ Come if you're a repeat founder
✅ Stay if you want war stories, not fluff
✅ Leave with real connections to other founders who've been (and are still) in it

Space is limited. No pitches, no panels, just real talk.
Apply to attend — we’re curating the room.
