About the event
Avante Price dropped out of NYU in 2021 to work on his business full-time. Just five years later, Posh has powered over $400 million in GMV and connected 9 million+ users to communities of people just like them, backed by over $70 million in funding, including a Series A led by Goodwater Capital.
In this small, closed-door breakfast in the heart of Manhattan, we're inviting founders who want to get under the hood of what it actually takes to build fast and break bread with a founder changing the game at speed.
We'll cover everything from Posh's 2020 pivot from a social college community to full-fledged event management platform, his path to Series B and how he's tackling (and embracing) their next phase of growth.
These conversations are designed to be honest, unpolished and dig deep into what it takes. Pull up a chair.
