Everything people ask before they come

Free and open, every month. No application, no invite gate, no revenue floor, and nobody is selling from the stage. It is free on purpose. The moment there is a ticket, the room has to sell tickets.

No. Anyone can walk in. The Kollective hosts the room and its members are in it, but you do not have to be one of them to come.

Yes, please. Save a seat on Partiful so we know how many people to expect. If you decide at the last minute, come anyway.

Yes. A third of the room just started, a third runs a company at two to ten million, and a third has built and sold before. This room is not beneath anybody.

Bring one person. Two is better. Somebody beside you keeps you honest about showing up, and one more person hears what gets said here.

Once a month, on a Friday afternoon, for two hours. The next date, the countdown and the seat link are on the home page.

Doors open at 3:00. The first fifteen minutes are a meet and greet with a drink and a snack. At 3:15 a founder gets interviewed on stage about how they built the company, and that runs until about 3:55. The last hour is the golf simulator, a contest or two, and open networking until 5:00.

No. There will never be sales from the stage, and that includes the sponsors, who get interviewed about their founder story instead.

No. Come, listen, and talk to whoever you want to talk to. The stage is for the interview.

Performance Golf Klub is one of the hosts, and after the interview the room moves into their simulator bays. You do not need to play golf to be there. The contest is for whoever wants in.

Yes. Jacob Mizell films the talks, and every one we have recorded is on the past events page with a writeup and the takeaways.

The stage is for the interview, and the guests are founders who have built something worth asking about. If that is you, reach the room and say what you built.

Founders and operators in Austin. The people who have been in the room are named on the speakers page with what they run, in no order and with no ranking.

Connor Cullip, the owner of 9 Line Companies, hosts it every month. The room is hosted with Performance Golf Klub, The Kollective and 9 Line Connect.

Sponsorship takes an application, quietly. A sponsor never sells from the stage. They get interviewed about how they built the company, the same as any guest. The current sponsors are on the sponsors page, and the way in is the contact page.

Because that is what people come here to build: the founders you call before a hard decision instead of after it. Most owners make every hard call alone. Two hours a month with people who have made the same calls changes that.

North Kollective, 9185 Research Blvd, Austin, TX 78758.

Doors at 3:00. The interview starts at 3:15 sharp, so arrive in the first fifteen minutes if you want a seat for it and a minute to say hello first.
