Founder's Forums

We bring together the best of three worlds—think tank, mastermind, and resource hub—to create a dynamic space where ideas become action and vision becomes reality.

As a think tank, we explore bold, forward-thinking solutions to the complex challenges facing urban communities. As a mastermind, we unite diverse, purpose-driven leaders in a collaborative environment where experiences are shared, strategies are refined, and opportunities are sparked. And as a resource hub, we equip our members with the tools, training, and connections they need to put those opportunities into motion.

Our model is built on collaboration, grounded in real-world expertise, and designed to help leaders not only dream big, but achieve measurable, lasting change.

Weekly Live Online Workshops & Seminars

Our Live Online Workshops bring you 4–6 expert-led sessions each month, giving you timely strategies and tools you can apply right away. Each workshop, led by vetted experts, is interactive, practical, and tailored for purpose-driven entrepreneurs, nonprofit founders, and community leaders.

You’ll find a full calendar of upcoming sessions, complete with expert bios and detailed topics ranging from funding and leadership to business growth and community impact. It’s your chance to learn from proven leaders, ask questions in real time, and connect with peers who share your vision for measurable change.
