SignalFire also helps founders navigate the toughest parts of building a company at every stage, with expert advisors, 200 skill-building workshops a year, and an in-house team of recruiters, data scientists, PR experts and go-to-market leaders.

We’re a small but mighty investment firm managing over $1B, and in February 2022, we raised our third set of funds of $500M that we split across early and growth stage software companies. We have deep respect and admiration for the startup founder journey and we will be your partner and friend throughout.

Starting a virtual book club inspired by wanting to chat with friends about Rick Rubin's latest work of art, I mean book, The Creative Act: A Way of Being. We're going to meet for an hour so come with your favorite beverage of choice, one or many passages you want to discuss and a chance to meet new friends around the world (gotta love the Internet that connects us all).

NYC Drinkup hosted by crowd.dev & TQ Ventures

To close out an epic week of community conferences hosted by Tailscale, MindsDB, and Gitpod, I decided to organize a causal Friday happy hour where we talk about anything but technology. 

Here are some suggested prompts: Do you dj? How's your Burning Man camp coming along? Have you decided to buy that van? Where are you planning to go hiking this weekend? Which farmers market do you go to? How are your guitar lessons going? What's your favorite art medium?
