Our take
Founders Forum started in 2005 to create an optimised environment for collaboration. The community was established as a response to the lack of credible, peer-to-peer European entrepreneur networks to rival those that existed in Silicon Valley.
Founders Forum hosts invite-only, not-for-profit forums to accelerate the positive impact of technology on the world. The company organises two flagship forums annually, as well as numerous smaller events globally, assembling a global community of founders, global leaders, senior investors and rising stars.
Founders Forum has also launched a family of businesses that exist to support entrepreneurs at all stages of their journey, covering advisory, executive search, education, diversity & inclusion, charitable giving and various others. The company remains committed to developing the future of industries, discovering and unearthing the latest trends in technology, and promoting avenues to create a positive impact on society.
