Ryujin Labs Founders Night: October
A practical evening for founders and operators building companies, products and new work in Canberra.
Long Lunch by black vc
One honest question. A room of builders. No keynote. No one pitching from the front. Long Lunch by black vc brings together people building something — founders, operators, business owners and people exploring what comes next — for an open conversation around one table. Each Long Lunch starts with one question. The room does the rest. October’s question: Q1 just closed. Based on what it showed you — what’s the one thing you’re backing, and what’s the one thing you’re cutting? Come ready to share what you’re working on, hear what others are seeing, and leave with greater clarity about where you’re putting your time, energy and resources next. Friday 16 October Workspace by black vc $55 per seat Seats are limited by design.
