Founder Circle: Pizza + Problem-Solving

Founder Circle: Pizza + Problem-Solving

Come for the pizza, stay for the problem-solving. Join peers to discuss startup challenges and spark fresh solutions.

Join fellow i-lab founders for a casual lunch and candid conversation. Over pizza, we’ll share the real challenges we're facing in our ventures and tap into the collective brainpower of the room to brainstorm solutions. Whether you're stuck on product, team dynamics, fundraising, or anything in between, this is a space to get support, offer insights, and leave with fresh ideas.


How it works:

  • Pizza + Mingling: Grab a slice and connect with fellow founders
  • Problem-Solving Circle: Share your current challenges and tap into the collective wisdom of the group for real-time brainstorming and solutions
  • Continued Conversations: Follow up on discussions and exchange contacts over remaining pizza


Perfect for:

  • Founders facing product, team, or strategy challenges
  • Entrepreneurs looking for peer support and fresh perspectives
  • Anyone who learns best through collaborative problem-solving


What to bring:

Your most pressing startup challenge, an open mind, and readiness to both give and receive advice.
