Last night was one for the books. 🔥

We packed out two floors of a venue in Central with talented founders — spanning education, F&B, retail, beauty, tech, bars. All under the age of 40. We had founders who've listed on Nasdaq, multiple Forbes 30U30s, and award-winning entrepreneurs. But its not about the titles and awards…its those nights working in trenches and experiences in building a business. Most have crossed the 8-figure revenue mark, with a few well beyond that.

The energy was just different.

We structured the night with group rotations and moderators to spark real conversations — no awkward small talk, just founders talking about the real stuff. And the night didn't end there. There was a second round afterwards because no one wanted to leave. : )

Different industries, different stages — but the same thread runs through all of us. Building a business from ground zero is never easy. The scaling, the setbacks, the culture-building. That shared experience? It hits differently when you're in a room full of people who get it.

We hope everyone walked away with a contact or two they wouldn't have otherwise crossed paths with. That's what FRTC is about.

P.S. If you want in next time, sign up early. 👀
