Founder in Residence Summit - What Comes After Fundraising?
Join us at Spring Place NY on September 18th for an insightful full-day summit focused on 'What comes after Fundraising'. We’ll dive into strategies for growth, marketing, finance/operations, and cultivating company culture, all crucial for taking your startup to the next level. Breakfast, lunch, and refreshments are included.
Post-Fundraising is a pivotal phase for startups, where the rubber meets the road and strategic decisions can shape the future trajectory of the company. It's a time marked by formidable challenges—scaling operations, fine-tuning product-market fit, nurturing investor relations—all critical elements for sustained growth and success.
At Founder in Residence, we recognize the complexities of this phase and aim to simplify the journey for founders like you. By offering direct access to industry leaders, seasoned entrepreneurs, and key service providers, we provide a platform where you can navigate these challenges with confidence. But our event goes beyond mere networking; it's about fostering meaningful connections and gaining actionable insights that will propel your startup forward.
Through engaging discussions, informative workshops, and intimate networking sessions, you'll have the opportunity to learn from those who have walked the path before you, gain invaluable advice from experts in the field, and connect with peers who understand the unique challenges you face.
