 Our weekly Founders Run, three years and counting. The First Two Weeks | | ✓ | We opened with Tech Week: a GTM masterclass with Cristina Ciaravalli (Valli Ventures), and an investing panel with Crush It Ventures, Cistern Capital, and Red Sea Ventures. | | ✓ | A Friday-night AI build night with speakers from Cursor and NVIDIA, a packed room of founders building instead of going out. | | ✓ | Weekly runs, sound baths, and member socials, including a MongoDB for Startups lunch, that have a way of turning strangers into collaborators. | | ✓ | A women founders morning of yoga and real conversation, the first of many member gatherings taking shape. | | ✓ | Founders working side by side all day, from first-time builders to repeat founders and angel investors. |

 Cristina Ciaravalli's GTM masterclass.  A full house for our Tech Week session with Cursor and NVIDIA.  And the socials, like this MongoDB for Startups lunch, that turn strangers into collaborators. Apply for the next cohort → · Book a coworking day The third space founders were missing Most people have three places: home, work, and a third place where they actually feel like themselves. Founders lost that one. Home and work blurred into the same laptop, and the "third place" became a calendar of networking happy hours that left them more drained than connected. Founders House is that third space. Deep work in the morning, a wellness break when you need it, and a lounge that fills with operators and investors as the day winds down. Work, wellness, and your people under one roof, instead of stitched together across the city.  A women founders morning of yoga and connection.  A fireside chat in the lounge with Swami Chidananda. What Membership Includes | | ✓ | A 24/7 workspace with hot desks, soundproof phone booths, and a private member lounge, so you can do deep work and take calls on your own schedule. | | ✓ | An on-site wellness space for movement and recovery, so taking care of your health is part of the day, not another thing to schedule. | | ✓ | A founder community with members-only runs, panels, socials, and fireside chats every week, so the people you need are already in the building. | | ✓ | A prime location next to Grand Central, with the building commons and amenities just downstairs, for the meetings and dinners that matter. |

The Next Cohort · 20 Spots We're opening just 20 spots. The founding cohort is full, so we're opening the next one. We keep each cohort small on purpose, so the room stays the right people: the curious, the high-agency, the ones who'd rather build than watch and want to do it without sacrificing their health. We read every application. Or book a coworking day first → |
Just over two weeks in, the room already has a pulse and the next cohort is open. If you've been waiting for the right time to find your people, this is it. See you at the House. Founders House · 22 Vanderbilt Ave, NYC |
