About the event
After a buzzing sold-out event last May, Founders Mesh returns to Los Angeles with its signature blend of curated networking, candid conversations, and a bold new angle: breaking into the European market.
Whether you’re a founder eyeing international growth, an investor curious about EU deal flow, or just someone who prefers real talk over fluff — this one's for you.
Why Join This Edition?
🧭 Insights on entering the EU market
Startup Founders — Learn how to successfully expand into the EU: from setting up operations to navigating regulations, fundraising, and scaling in a market with 450M+ potential customers.
Investors — Learn how to get access to curated EU deal flow: meet vetted startups, understand regional dynamics, and discover emerging opportunities beyond the US echo chamber.
💬 Curated Networking, Minus the Noise
Expect 60+ startup founders, investors, and advisors — all handpicked to keep the quality high and the small talk minimal. Tickets are limited, so do not wait until the last moment to get yours.
🎤 Pitching Sessions (6 spots only)

🍷 First Natural Wine on Us
Thanks to Bar Covell’s impeccable taste and our need to keep things easy and honest.
🌍 Last stop before we head back to Europe
This is a unique LA event before Founders Mesh returns to Amsterdam. It’s your chance to connect, cross-pollinate, and get plugged into our international community.
Founders Mesh is not your typical networking event.
We don’t do panels. We don’t do ego. We do honest, smart, intentional gatherings for people building (or backing) the future.
Built in Amsterdam. Growing in LA.
Let’s make it a golden hour to remember — before we cross the ocean.
