Founders & Friends is a support group and community for like-minded solo business founders.
It’s a group that is more about the social, learning and supportive side of business. Many solo-founders often feel alone, unsupported and lack social interaction, so we wanted to offer something unique to this overlooked bunch.
All our members are hand-picked, so you can rest assured they’re just like you!
Importantly, Founders & Friends is designed around MAKING FRIENDS NOT SALES.
So come and see what we’re all about.
Building long-lasting meaningful friendships, and having fun.
Supporting, inspiring and encouraging each other as we all ride the founder Rollercoaster.
A place you can learn, develop and grow alongside other ambitious founders.
"Fantastic to be involved in this group, you’re building something really special here!"

Our monthly Forum event is held on the first Monday of the month. It’s a safe space to meet likeminded solo-founders all who want to support, learn, make friends and share their own founder experiences. Each month we cover:
There are NO pitches, business cards or hard sales. We’re all about making friends… NOT SALES.
*As our group is exclusive in nature, places are limited.
At certain times of the year we say goodbye to the business chat and instead get together to hang-out and have a good time!
We have social events planned for Summer and Christmas, plus others in the pipeline – So watch this space.
As founders we need scheduled time for self-development and a place to get inspired, motivated and believe anything is possible.
That’s why we invite special guests to come along and share their story, experiences and vast knowledge with the group.
We believe that knowledge is power and it’s why we’re giving our solo-founders the insights they need to succeed on their journey.
Our Speaker events are held every second month.
A common scene is often working alone, surrounded by the same four walls that stamp out your creativity and motivation.
So we’re looking to change that with a Co-Work Day session for our Founders. Held at Co-Space Milton Keynes, this stylish working environment is the perfect place to work alongside others who are just like you!
Our Co-Work Days are held every second month.
