Founders Keepers

DFW has founders. It’s missing a room. We’re building one.

Founders Keepers brings DFW founders and builders together to work, share what they’re making, and meet one another.

A SHORT NOTE
People across DFW are building companies, products, and ideas.
Too many of them haven’t met.
Founders Keepers gives them a place to meet, work side by side, and share what they’re building.
WHO CAN COME

You don’t need a finished company. Bring something you’ve launched, something half-built, or an idea you’re ready to start.

No application is required to attend. Come ready to work and share what you’re building.

HOW WE GATHER

We started with a build night. More are coming.

At our first build night, around 120 people worked side by side and six teams shared live demos. We plan to add smaller dinners and focused off-sites as the community grows.

WHY DFW

DFW has plenty of people building ambitious things. They shouldn’t have to find one another by accident.

Why we started →

Founders Keepers is creating a place for DFW founders and builders to meet, work together, and see what others are making.
