Dwell & Swell Vancouver - Co-working for Founders #4 (Partnered with Althra)
We're excited to announce our first partnered Dwell & Swell in Vancouver with Sanket from Althra in their new incubator space.
If this is your first time joining us, here's what to expect:
Hi, I'm Dom with the team at Ripple Ventures! I host monthly founder co-working sessions. These sessions are meant for our portfolio companies, RippleX fellows and alumni, and friends of the fund to mingle and build incredible ventures together :) if you're getting this, it means you've been a meaningful part of an event we've hosted in the past and we'd love to dwell in your presence again.
The Ripple team will also be around to provide a sounding board and facilitate connections—think of this as very informal office hours!
Note: We intentionally keep these groups small and curated. Only people who have received confirmation on Luma will be admitted to the event. If you're waitlisted, please respect that, and we'd love to have you come to the ones we host in future weeks.
There are a lot of co-working spaces nowadays, so we want to communicate the specific niche we're looking to serve. We're passionate about hosting people who are:
Founders (ideally building in B2B software)
Builders/ Tinkerers (who are looking to start a company one day)
Please sign up at least a day before the event, as we need to notify building security ahead of time of guests we're hosting.
What to expect:
A supportive and intimate group of around 10-20 founders (ranging from bootstrapped to Series A folks) you can lean on
Light refreshments
Time with the Ripple team for honestly anything – demo-ing your product, reviewing your pitch deck, connecting you with potential customers etc.
What this is NOT:
A networking event. Come with something you want to work on!
A place to work on your 9-5 day job (unless you're a founder and already full-time on your company, then of course come)
Note: We start promptly - given how tight-knit these sessions are, please respect that and join us on time.
