The founders circle
We are a small, invitation-only circle of accomplished business founders who gather once a month in the western suburbs of Minneapolis.
Our evenings are unhurried and intentional. We connect with peers, cry about the latest Vikings loss, explore a new whiskey, unpack real challenges at work, and think boldly about what’s next.
What you won’t find: business cards, gossip, complaints, or anything resembling a Chamber, BNI, Lions, Rotary, or other networking group.
W e ’ r e d i f f e r e n t.
feel free to come to the
next meeting if you are:
successful & over 40
What do we mean by successful?
You’ve sold a business or still own one (mandatory requirement). You don’t chase clients like some desperate vacuum salesman.
You probably have a second home and a retirement plan that doesn’t involve working until you’re 80 or moving in with your children. And if you don’t, might we suggest visiting tempo-wealth.com
fun to hang out with
People gravitate toward you at networking or social events. People want to have a drink with you and solve all of the world’s problems. You make others laugh.
able to attend a once a month meeting in the western suburbs
We pick a Thursday of every month near EP, Chan, Chaska, Victoria, or Waconia. See below for upcoming dates and places.
willing to buy a round of drinks
This is what it costs to join the group. Your membership fee is to buy a round of drinks for up to 4 people. Don’t worry we won’t order that 10 year-old Macallen.
You only need to do this once per calendar year to be considered an active member.
“love coming to these meetings. i’ve met so many wonderful entrepreneurs in a casual no-frills venue. plus i found a new favorite bourbon. A great experience all around.”
