🐑 Play Catan with Tech Founders, Operators, and Investors
"Whereas tech drinks optimise for alcoholics, tech games optimise for high-IQ crowds." 🧠
You're invited to a game of Tech Catan with a crowd of high signal founders, operators, & investors, presented by Techgames.xyz.
If you're a statistically literate techy who also finds beauty in abstraction, you probably LOVE games. 🧠
Perhaps you also worked very hard this week and now you're looking to relax. 🔥
If this sounds like you, we want YOU to come. 🫵🏽
What to expect?
Catan Tournament - We are limiting it to only 20 people. First come, first join. You also get a seat if you bring your Catan board. :)
Amazing people - We're running high-signal gaming events for you to recharge AND find the best allies to boost the odds of your venture's success.
Games + elite tech crowd = Max-ROI 👾
Our theses?
We believe the best founders, operators, and investors in the world are great gamers (e.g. Demis Hassabis with Chess, Reid Hoffman with Catan, Zuckerberg with Poker, etc).
Games attract the strongest allies you can imagine (e.g. future co-founder, hire, partner, investor).
