Testimonials
I walked in knowing nobody and left with two people I now talk to every week. One of them became my advisor. You can't manufacture that, but Founder Feast creates the conditions for it.

I've been to dozens of networking events. This is the only one where I didn't feel like I was performing. Just real people, real food, real conversation about what we're actually going through.

The curation is what makes it. Everyone at my table was at a similar stage but in completely different industries. The cross-pollination of ideas was incredible.

Founder Feast is for entrepreneurs, startup founders, CEOs, co-founders, and business builders in Vancouver. Whether you're at the idea stage or scaling a growing company, if you're in the arena building something, this is for you.

Every application is reviewed by our team. We look at your background, what you're building, your energy and intent. We're not looking for the biggest companies. We're looking for people who are genuinely engaged in entrepreneurship and would add value to the table.

A single dinner is $29, or you can subscribe for $20/week which gives you access to one dinner per week. Both options cover curation, matching, restaurant selection, and all logistics. You pay for your own food and drinks at the restaurant separately.

At handpicked restaurants across Vancouver: Downtown/Gastown, Kitsilano, North Vancouver, and Mount Pleasant. You select your preferred area when you apply.

Every Thursday evening at 7 PM. You'll receive your group details and restaurant location the morning of the dinner via WhatsApp.

Not to the same dinner, that's by design. The magic is meeting people outside your existing circle. But we'd love for your friend to apply separately. Refer them and you'll both get priority.
