Founders House · NYC · August Founders House Third space for founders · Manhattan Hey it's Damian and Louisa, Founders House just hit 100 paid members!! Less than two months after we opened, without any marketing spend. More than 1,250 founders have applied for those 100 spots. Fewer than 1 in 10 get in. So yes, I guess the headlines are correct.. People are craving community. Applications open on a rolling basis This space is filling fast, and we’re hunting our second location. Apply to join, and tell us the city or neighborhood we should open next. You’ll be on the waitlist and the first to know when it lands. |
 Louisa and I at Founders House after hitting 100 members. Here's what we're betting on: the best ideas come from the serendipity that happens from being in one space. Intros happen while you're waiting on coffee. The founder two years ahead of you saves you four months in a four minute conversation. Community is first, but the space makes it possible. So we're doubling down. More events, more resources for members, and we're on the hunt for our second location. When you apply, tell us where we should open next. Most of July filled up. August just opened. Most of the coworking days we ran in July went full, and a lot of founders didn't get in. If that was you, the August days just went up, so grab one early. Would love to have you in.  Intros over lunch on a July coworking day. Most of them went full. August coworking days | | Aug 4, 5, 6 | Tue, Wed, Thu | | Aug 11, 12, 13 | Tue, Wed, Thu | | Aug 18, 19, 20 | Tue, Wed, Thu | | Aug 25, 26, 27 | Tue, Wed, Thu |
Every day runs 1:00 to 6:00 PM ET. Tours of the gym and the rest of the space at 2 PM and 5 PM. RSVPs are approval only and we cap the number of people each day, which is why they go. |
You get a desk from 1pm, fast wifi, phone booths for your calls, a conference room if you need one, and coffee. Around you are founders doing the same thing. Everyone books it for a place to work, then ends up staying late talking to the founders next to them. Summer Builders Day, August 25 Tuesday, August 25, 2 to 7pm at 22 Vanderbilt. We're hosting it with MongoDB. An afternoon for founders and technical builders working with AI agents and developer tooling, ending with five founders from our community pitching on stage.  July's storytelling masterclass. Every seat taken, and Builders Day is bigger. This is the one event this summer I'd tell you not to miss. August 25 is also a coworking day, so you can work from the space from 1pm and walk straight in. What else is on Membership Come spend an afternoon with us first. If the space and the people feel right, here's how to stick around.  A sound bath in the studio. The wellness side is half the point. The tiers | All-Access The gym and 24/7 workspace at 22 Vanderbilt, the wellness club, the member lounge, guest passes, and every event. Social The community and the wellness side, with priority access to every member event. For founders who want the people without the desk. Virtual The private founder community, virtual programming, and a monthly coworking day pass. For founders outside New York. |
Applications are open on a rolling basis, and we've read more than 1,250 of them to keep the community the way it is. Tell us what you're building, and where we should open next.
