**🔧 Introducing: *The Relentless Fellowship***
This is a **private support group and collaboration circle** for serious, mission-driven workaholic entrepreneurs who obsessively live and breathe their work.
Not a speaker panel. Not a pitch night. Not a parade of LinkedIn personalities. No bullshit about work-life balance. No political correctness or woke bullshit. This is about finding and being amongst other similarly driven entrepreneurs. This is a fellowship, not a networking event. A workaholic support group, not a place to wayang.
Just real conversations and profitable collaborations formed over dinner with fellow entrepreneurs who:
* Show up, not just in business but in how they treat others.
* Share knowledge, experience, perspective and opportunities. Not just take take take.
* Respect time, commitments and the opportunity to connect with high-calibre fellow entrepreneurs to build lasting collaborations.
This is a space for **mutual support**, **shared energy** and **zero woke political correctness**.
***
**📅 The Format**
* Held on **Tuesday or Thursday evenings**, hosted at a fellow entrepreneur’s office.
* **Capped at 8 attendees (including the host)** to protect the quality of conversation and connection.
* **Bring your own packed dinner**; drinks provided from the host’s pantry.
***

2. Provide your **name, company name, and a short intro** (either what your company does or what new venture you’re starting).
3. Confirm if you are open to meeting **over dinner on the 4th Thursday of the month**.
From there, you’ll be contacted directly once dates and details are set.
***
**If you’ve been quietly carrying the weight of your business, building quietly, working relentlessly and ready to meet others walking the same to band up in building together stronger, better and faster, the Relentless Fellowship is for you.**
**No speeches. No spectators. No wokeness. Just builders.**

From Web Forms to Web Components - Burton Smith
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
**Abstract**
Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively.
This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way.
