We're DOING IT DIFFERENTLY

A world where founders build, learn and support each other.

In a world where more founders are building remotely, success takes more than working harder. It takes the right people, honest conversations, and a community built around connection, clarity, and momentum.

For Founders Who Want More Than Just Networking...

Founders & Friends was built for ambitious people tired of surface-level networking and working in isolation. Through curated events, co-working days, and honest conversations, we bring together founders who want real connection, sharper thinking, and a community that genuinely understands the journey.

Socials & Experiences

Because it’s not all about work. From dinners and drinks to days out and shared experiences, we make time to switch off, have fun and build genuine friendships beyond business.

Speaker Series

Curated talks from industry leaders, sharing insights and sparking inspiration for your founder journey.

Lock-in & Workshops

A close-knit group of founders come together to review wins, losses and challenges before setting focus for the month ahead. Practical workshops then turn conversation into action, tackling real problems and sharpening the skills behind your business.

from the founders
The Founders & Friends community is so valuable to me as a growing entrepreneur, we all run different types of businesses and in different ways, which means each session is full of perspective. On top of that, it's great having a local group of people, to meet in person, that "get it"

Founders has been amazing for me as it's introduced me to some amazing solo-founders, and helped me to realise I'm not alone with my thoughts and worries. I love each get-together and appreciate the wisdom from such an amazing group of people.

Founders has helped me voice concerns, navigate my priorities ad gave me permission to let go of things that won't serve the business. This, combined with a healthy dose of socialising makes it a great place if you're looking for company in your founder adventures.

Owning a business can feel lonely and overwhelming, but Founders & Friends have helped me to find a community who understand and have helped me manage the lows and celebrate the highs.
