Female Founders Breakfast
Meaningful connections over breakfast
A global sisterhood of women founders. Intimate breakfasts in 35 cities, an online community that is always on, and 38 ambassadors carrying the movement across continents.
Why we exist
We get it: showing up is difficult
What founders tell us at the breakfast table, and what we do about it.
Feeling isolated as a solo founder
Sit down with women who are building too, in your city and online.
Lack of relatable mentorship
Ambassadors, coaches and founders a few steps ahead, who remember what this stage felt like.
Burnout from hustle without support
A space to slow down, say how it is really going, and leave with a plan.
Struggling with visibility and confidence
Practise telling your story to a table that wants you to win.
Not knowing where to meet like-minded women
Breakfasts in 35 cities and a members directory to find founders near you.
Growing a sustainable start-up
Workshops, courses and resources on fundraising, sales and building to last.

Breakfast with purpose
20% of all breakfast profits funds resources for women founders in underserved communities. In 2026 we are raising 10,000 euros for Ubuntu, a free conference for female founders in Africa. Every seat at the table creates space for another woman to rise.
