What we offer
Rich conversations and community
We provide an intimate and relaxed environment for leaders from VC firms to have thoughtful conversations, and dynamic peer-driven discussions.

Exclusive retreats
A 1-day, 1-night special off-site gathering hosted in a regional location, providing an opportunity for the community to come together, unwind, and network.

Venture Downunder
A 3-day, 3-night "unconference" style retreat, featuring local startups and experts, unexpected activities, engaging talks, and peer-led breakout sessions.

Virtual roundtables
Hour-long quarterly virtual catchups with the community featuring an expert guest speaker, followed by breakout sessions.


Great people and lots of opportunities for those conversations we don't get to have at any other events.
