Building InSeattle
An exclusive event for founders, VCs, and operators. Two panels. Three hours. On the Seattle waterfront.
The Panels
Investor Panel
A candid conversation with leading Seattle investors on what they're backing, how they're evaluating founders right now, and where the next wave of category-defining companies will be built.
Founder Panel
Founders who built and scaled category-defining companies share what actually worked — and what they wish they'd known earlier.
