Venture Capital

**Event notice:** This session is hosted by me, Nicholas Chan, in my personal capacity as a volunteer with [DOMINUS Labs](https://www.dominuslab.org/). It is a third-party event and is not organised, endorsed, or affiliated with the Singapore Entrepreneurs Network. DOMINUS Dinner is a simple, grounded setting where Christian entrepreneurs can meet face to face, share a meal, and have honest conversations about work, leadership, and faith as it is lived out in business. **About the dinner** * This is a small-group dinner. * Conversation is shaped by a Christian worldview and informed by the lived experience of Christian entrepreneurs. * No specific church affiliation or denominational background is required. * The intent is thoughtful, respectful conversation rather than debate or persuasion. **What to expect** * Shared dinner. You will need to purchase a meal, not just a drink. * Respectful discussion. * No selling, no pitching, no recruitment. **Who this is for** * Christian entrepreneurs and business owners. * Founders interested in integrating faith and work. * Those open to listening and engaging in good faith. **Who this may not suit** * Those seeking a purely secular networking event. * Those uncomfortable with Christian-based discussion. All are welcome. Respect for differing backgrounds within the Christian faith is expected. **How to RSVP** * Please note due to extremely limited seating in the venue, only 8 seats have been requested on-site. Do not RSVP if you cannot confirm your attendance or if you intend to cancel it 1 - 2 days before the event. * To confirm your seat, you will need to RSVP to Nicholas via WhatsApp at +65 9488-9683 to indicate your attendance. You will be informed if your seat is confirmed. * RSVPs via WhatsApp will close at 10pm on Monday 2 March 2026. By registering, you acknowledge that this is a personal, third-party event and not a Singapore Entrepreneurs Network activity. **About DOMINUS Labs** [DOMINUS Labs](https://www.dominuslab.org/) is an international community of Christian founders, operators, and leaders focused on building companies with integrity, resilience, and long-term responsibility. Its work centres on peer formation, practical wisdom, and the conviction that faith should shape how businesses are built and led, not just what founders believe in private.

FREE meetup. Register HERE 🎟️- https://www.eventbrite.com/e/unlocking-retirement-capital-flips-wholesales-private-money-strategies-tickets-1983411263481?aff=cicmeetupapp **Unlocking Retirement Capital: Flips, Wholesales & Private Money Strategies in Self-Directed Accounts** **Featuring Guest Speaker:** Amanda Holbrook (Specialized Trust Company) **Hosted by:** Columbus Investors Club ### **Event Description** Most people think retirement accounts are passive. That they’re “for later.”That you can’t touch them. That real estate and retirement money don’t mix. They’re wrong. This meetup is about how investors use **Self-Directed IRAs and Solo 401(k)s** to put retirement capital to work…**buying real estate, funding deals, and even raising private money** (the right way). ### **Featured Guest Speaker: Amanda Holbrook** We’re excited to welcome **Amanda Holbrook of Specialized Trust Company** to break this down clearly and practically…so you understand what’s allowed, how it works, and what to avoid. ### **What You’ll Learn** Amanda will walk through: **Flip inside a Self-Directed IRA or Solo-401(k)** * How to structure the deal correctly * How expenses must be handled * When UBIT may apply **Wholesale within a retirement account** * How assignments work * What type of income it creates **Use OPM (Other People’s Money) to scale** * How investors raise private money from Self-Directed IRAs * How to structure notes properly * How to fund deals inside **and** outside your own retirement account ### **The Core Idea** There is a lot of capital sitting in retirement accounts. This session shows you how real estate investors unlock it **without guessing, winging it, or accidentally creating a compliance mess.** ### **Who This Event Is For** * Investors flipping or wholesaling who want to understand self-directed rules * Anyone raising private money (or wanting more capital sources) * People with retirement funds who want them working harder than stocks/mutual funds ### **Event Details** **Location:** Ohio Brewing Company – 421 E 2nd Ave, Columbus, OH 43201 **Date & Time:** Thursday, March 26th, 6–8 PM *(Doors open at 5:30)* **Cost:** Free *(Seats are limited — RSVP required)* **Food:** Free food included **FREE meetup.

## Hey Columbus WIP peeps! ## Are you ready for an event that actually gives you what you asked for?? **\-\-\-\-\-\-** **A Small-group coaching conversations for women in product navigating growth, leadership, and career decisions.** **March 10 \| 5:30–8:00 PM** **Rev1 -- NEW SPACE** **330 Rush Alley #100** **Parking Options:** • **Rev1 at The Peninsula** • **Starling St. Garage South** – 377 W. Capital St. • **LAZ Parking (COSI)** – 50 Belle St. • **LAZ Parking Limited** – 375 W. State St. • **Veterans Memorial Lot** – 300 W. Broad St. • **Metered Street Parking** **What moves are you making?** A promotion you’re working toward. A role change you’re considering. A bigger leadership opportunity. A conversation that needs to happen. A decision that’s been sitting in the back of your mind. For our Q1 Women in Product Columbus event, we’re creating space to actually work through those moments. **Making Moves** is an evening of focused, facilitated coaching conversations with experienced mentors from our local product community. This isn’t a panel. It’s not passive networking. It’s small-group dialogue designed to be thoughtful, practical, and worth your time. Here’s how it will work: • You’ll choose a topic that reflects what you’re navigating right now • You’ll join a small coaching circle (5–7 participants) • Each circle is led by a mentor who has lived experience in that area • We’ll run two rounds so you can go deeper or explore a second conversation ### Coaching Topics: • Communicating the Value of Your Work (or Team) • Career Transitions & What’s Next • Growing Into Leadership • Staying Relevant as Technology (and AI) Changes • Getting Alignment and Decisions from Leadership Our goal is simple: you leave with clearer thinking, practical perspective, and at least one next step you feel confident about. Space in each circle will be limited to keep conversations meaningful. If this sounds like the kind of room you’ve been wanting to be in, we’d love to see you on March 10. RSVP here!
