From Happy Hour to Launchpad: The Finding Funding Experience

How do you turn a happy hour into a launchpad for the next big thing?

Our recent Finding Funding Happy Hour events asked just that.

We brought together a highly curated, intimate group of founders, superconnectors, and investors for an evening of meaningful connections and insights on community-driven capital raising.

Dallas saw my business partner Devin Ambron team up with Pete Stubbs from DealMaker, while I hosted the Austin event alongside Pete.

What Made These Events Special

Here’s what made these events special:

👥 Carefully curated attendee list (no service providers)

🍹 Open happy hour for relaxed networking

🧊 Icebreakers to kickstart conversations (not forced & where needed)

💡 Discussions on leveraging community for fundraising

Building a Community of Innovators

A huge thank you to the DealMaker team for sponsoring these events and to all the brilliant minds who joined us.

These evenings aren’t just about networking – they’re about building a community of innovators who support and elevate each other.
