SMRTN events

Not a conference. Breakfast.

SMRTN MRNGS put three to four startups and eight to twelve matched members around one table for 90 minutes, starting in NYC and then Silicon Valley. Members choose which startups they meet, so every conversation starts with a real need. SMRTN NGHTS are larger quarterly evening showcases where startups pitch.

How SMRTN MRNGS work

Small enough to be useful.

01

Matched to your priorities

Each breakfast forms around what members are trying to solve, not around who paid for a slot.

02

You choose who you meet

See the shortlist before you accept. Meet the startups you picked, with peers in your function.

03

Small enough to talk

A table, not an auditorium. Ask the questions you'd ask in a diligence call.

04

Follow-up on your terms

Add a company to your watchlist, ask for a diligence brief, or move on. Nobody chases you.

Cities

New York first. Then Silicon Valley.

Invitations go to members matched on the priorities they share at intake.
