Join the Founder Institute for an in-person session on bootstrapping and seedstrapping, designed to help early-stage founders fund growth, generate independent revenue, and build meaningful traction before pursuing venture capital. The event features Carolyn Katz, Co-Founder of Paddling Furiously and former Managing Director at Goldman Sachs. Drawing from her experience advising startups and leading founder peer communities, Carolyn will share practical lessons on financing early growth and navigating the less visible realities of entrepreneurship. Attendees will also have the opportunity to share what they are building, receive actionable feedback, and connect with fellow founders in a candid, supportive networking environment focused on resilience and sustainable success.
