Startups Support Group

I have no control over the space, we use the available seats and explore opportunities in small groups and moving from one group to another.

Building a startup can be exciting — and surprisingly lonely. This group is for founders, co-founders, early-stage entrepreneurs and people working on startup ideas who want to share challenges, exchange practical advice and help each other move forward.

What we discuss

Bring a real startup challenge, question or conundrum to the group. For example:

  • 💡 Validating a business idea
  • 🚀 Finding your first customers
  • 💰 Funding, pricing and revenue
  • 🧑‍💻 Building or choosing the right technology
  • 📣 Marketing, sales and growth
  • 🤝 Finding co-founders, partners or talent
  • ⚖️ Legal, company and operational questions
  • 🔄 Pivoting when something isn't working
  • 🧩 Problems that don't fit neatly into a category

How it works

Rather than sitting through a series of presentations, we aim to create useful conversations between people facing real problems. You can bring a specific question, explain a challenge you're facing, or simply listen and contribute your experience to someone else's problem. There are no stupid questions and no expectation that you have everything figured out.

Who is it for?

Whether you're:

  • exploring your first startup idea,
  • building an MVP,
  • running an early-stage company,
  • bootstrapping,
  • looking for investment,
  • or supporting startups as a founder, expert or partner,

you're welcome. Come with a conundrum. Leave with ideas, connections and potentially a different way of looking at the problem.
