Weekly live programming

Five ways to move forward.

Five live rooms each week — Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays — each roughly 90 minutes and designed to create a useful outcome, not simply another conversation.

Mondays · Build together

Networking & AI Build Tech Live for Startups

Move from talking about AI to building with it — using a plethora of AI platforms and tools.

A practical virtual build session with live support. Participants use a wide range of AI platforms and tools to build startups and entrepreneurial ventures — from lifestyle and passion projects to scaling startups — and to boost efficiency at home and at work. Work alongside one another, share progress, unblock challenges, and can follow a companion video link on a second platform.

When: Mondays, noon–1:30 p.m. ET
For: Founders, builders, and technical collaborators
Format: Networking + guided build + live support

Tuesdays · Our one evening room

The Author Room

Great books, read aloud by the people who wrote them.

A weekly evening room highlighting book authors. Each author reads from their work, then the floor opens for community members and guests to ask questions and engage in a real dialogue with the author.

When: Tuesdays, 6–7:30 p.m. ET
For: Authors, readers, and the curious community
Format: Author reading + open dialogue

Wednesdays · Founder intelligence

Metrics Matter

Know your numbers — and understand which metrics attract and intrigue investors.

A podcast-style conversation led primarily by Laura, examining the metrics, evidence, operating choices, and honest tradeoffs behind company-building — with a sharp eye on what investors actually look for. Each room closes with focused audience Q&A.

When: Wednesdays, noon–1:30 p.m. ET
For: Founders, operators, and curious investors
Format: Conversation + audience Q&A

Thursdays · One topic, weekly

The Business Room

One business topic, taken seriously, every week.

Hosted by Paul Merrick, each room digs into a single business topic — from pricing and hiring to partnerships and operations — with practical discussion for founders and entrepreneurs to apply the same week.

When: Thursdays, noon–1:30 p.m. ET
For: Founders and operators at any stage
Format: Single-topic deep dive + discussion

Sundays · Practice under pressure

The Pitch Room

A better pitch is built in the room, not in isolation.

Selected founders with demonstrated traction meet for 90-second pitches to invited angel, venture capital, private equity, and C-suite guests. A limited number of ad hoc stage slots keep the room open and alive.

When: Sundays, noon–1:30 p.m. ET
For: Traction-ready founders and capital partners
Format: Invited pitches + candid questions
