About us
Entrepreneurship permeates the culture of Silicon Valley - the innovation capital of the world.
Never before has it been so possible for anyone from anywhere, with a great idea and a burning desire to succeed, to make it big and change the world in a relatively short period of time.
Taking a startup from idea to IPO has taken on mythical proportions. Many dream the dream, with hopes of launching the "next big thing".
We are a community of entrepreneurs, technologists, academics, financial professionals, corporate executives, attorneys, academics, bloggers, writers, content creators, and social activists.
One of the compelling features of our meetup group is our packed, busy calendar full of informative programs and practical activities designed to help our entrepreneurial members achieve their objectives and realize their aspirations.
We meet regularly to share resources, exchange ideas, and network. We participate in on-line as well as off-line events.
Our events feature expert speakers, networking opportunities, collaboration, community, and fellowship.

"I've applied to 80 jobs. I've heard back from one."
You've heard this from your smartest friends. From former top performers. Maybe from yourself. The market changed — AI rewrote the rules, recruiters are overwhelmed, and job seekers are exhausted. If that's you, the problem isn't effort. It's that effort without a strategy just produces more applications, not more offers.
In this session, you'll see the difference between doing more and doing the right things — and walk away with a concrete next step, not another list of tips to sit on.
What you'll learn:- The #1 mistake that makes even qualified candidates invisible to recruiters
- How to build a target market instead of applying to anything remotely related to your background
- Why "networking" usually fails — and what a useful conversation actually looks like
- The shift from application volume to strategic execution, and how to make it stick past week one
This is for you if:
- You've been laid off, ghosted, or stuck without knowing why
- You're changing careers and don't know where to start
- You're tired of activity that doesn't turn into conversations
From there, two paths, not two products with a winner. Work through your strategy independently with The Playbook. Or get live coaching and a cohort in 6 Weeks to Hired: The Fall 2026 Job Search Bootcamp — Playbook included for the program, plus two months free after it ends.
Either way, you leave with a plan, not a longer to-do list.1 attendee
