Stripe @ Night: Lessons from 9 exits and $144M raised
Details
Join us for a special edition of the Stripe Community Meetup, with extended networking afterwards in the beautiful Waterloo WeWork!
Go Behind the Build in a fireside chat with Bernardo and Estefanía, the team behind Blackstone Studio and First Time Founders. With 50+ MVPs shipped, 9 exits, and over $144M raised across the companies they’ve helped build, they’ve spent the last seven years working side-by-side with founders bringing ideas to life.
In this session, we’ll break down the systems, mindsets, and behind-the-scenes decisions that separate projects that ship from the ones that stall. Expect real stories, practical insights, and the kind of conversation you only get from people who’ve been in the arena.
