Invite & Approval Only: Private AI Founders & Funders ($500K–$10M+ ARR / Funding) 🍕
We're taking over a private pizza lab for an evening of hands-on Neapolitan pizza making and high-signal conversation among founders & funders, featuring a General Partner at GreatPoint Ventures ($1.5B AUM) and a Partner at Basis Set Ventures ($850M+ AUM). GreatPoint Ventures invests $250K–$20M into Seed, Series A, and Series B companies across enterprise software, AI, deeptech, fintech, and health tech, while Basis Set Ventures is an AI-native venture capital firm investing $1M–$3M in pre-seed through Series A startups building the future of intelligent collaboration, scalable infrastructure, automated workflows, and autonomous machines
The format is intentionally intimate. You'll craft your own artisan Neapolitan pizza alongside a curated group of founders and investors, creating the kind of setting where every conversation has the opportunity to become a lasting relationship.
We'll also host an open AMA with our featured General Partner from GreatPoint Ventures and Partner from Basis Set Ventures, so come ready with your burning questions on fundraising, company building, scaling startups, navigating today's venture landscape, and what investors look for when backing the next generation of category-defining companies.
Together, we'll explore conversations around:
-Finding product-market fit and identifying the right wedge for AI products
-Winning your first enterprise customers and building a repeatable sales motion
-Hiring exceptional talent and creating a high-performing early team
-Fundraising in today's market and how investors are evaluating AI startups
-Building a trusted network of founders, operators, and investors to accelerate growth
We'll close with open networking, followed by artisan pizza, refreshments, and plenty of time for conversation.
You'll leave with:
🤝 Meaningful relationships with founders & funders building at a similar stage
