Stay Connected. Keep Growing.
The Founders Table isn’t a one-and-done experience — it’s an ongoing community designed to help entrepreneurs move from idea to action and beyond.
After each event, you can post progress updates to your project profile, sharing what’s changed, what you’ve accomplished, and what you’ve learned. This not only helps you track your own growth, but also keeps you connected with fellow entrepreneurs who can see your progress and offer fresh insights.
Then at the next mastermind, you bring your updated iteration — what you’ve worked on since your last feedback session — and put it back through the cycle. This creates a repeatable, structured process for refining your ideas: share your work, get feedback, make changes, and return with a stronger version.
The Founders Table is built as an open system. All postings related to our members’ business development are visible to the community, so you can learn from each other’s journeys. See how others refine their ideas, overcome obstacles, and turn feedback into results — and let your own journey inspire the next wave of founders.
Our program facilitators are in regular contact with members to you all are up-to-date on Founders Table events. We provide you with online forms to help you plan your communications during events.
What is a mastermind like?
A mastermind at The Founders Table is a virtual structured gathering of people with shared goals who come together to give and receive honest feedback, fresh perspectives, and mutual accountability.
It’s not a class. It’s not a webinar.
It’s a collaborative space where each voice matters — and each idea gets sharpened through conversation.
At The Founders Table, our mastermind sessions are designed to help entrepreneurs and creatives get clarity, test ideas, and take action — even when the idea is still raw. We believe you don’t need to be ready. You just need to show up.

"The Founders Table was a refreshing and inspiring experience. I gained valuable feedback, new ideas for my florist startup, and a real sense of community — even from across the world. The mix of entrepreneurship and food was unexpected but brilliant. I’m excited to keep coming back."
— Hanna, Founder of Ohannas Atelier (Singapore)
Commonly Asked Questions

No. You can use this space to help you figure out your next steps and get insight.
​
Why should participants bring a picture of a new meal or drink they've recently had to sessions?
Food and drink is the lubrication of relationships. Business is about building and maintaining relationships. We use food to build community and to maintain a spirit of creation and friendly competition among mastermind participants. Bring an image of a meal you prepared recently to the event. You can even post it on Instagram. It should be something you’ve never had before. It will be a highlight of the Meet and Eat session at the start of the mastermind. We use food talk to break the ice during events.
How can I get value out of the event?
Arrive on time for your event and be open about what you're up to. Be open to feedback. Be open to trying something different in the service of your future.
What is gestalt of the gathering?
The gestalt of the gathering is problem solving focused. The goal to get feedback on your business ideas and plans in a supportive space.
