Join us for the May meeting of the Triangle Startup Collective - the Triangle's monthly meetup for startups.
Hosted by Parker Mayes and James Fredley, this event brings together startup founders and teams with a panel of experts for real, practical conversations about building companies from the ground up.
What to Expect:
1. Founder Stories
Featured guests, a mix of founders, operators, and investors, will share short, raw stories from their early journey with tactical advise. (Not the polished version.)
2. Tactical Hot-Seat Q&A
Entrepreneurs in the audience will step into the “hot seat” to bring REAL questions about their company. Our panel will respond with direct, practical insight based on their own experience so attendees walk away with tangible, founder-tested advice they can apply immediately.
3. Community + Food
This is an intimate, high-value space with only 100 seats available. Food and drinks will be provided.
Who This Is For:
- All founders
- Tech or tech-enabled startups
- Founders wanting real tactics
Why Attend? You’ll leave with:
- Real frameworks you can use tomorrow
- A deeper network of local founders
- A space to be honest about the challenges of building
Reserve your spot today and join a community of founders who are building, learning, and growing together.
