Our story
We built VEN after FounderNexus members asked for the same peer experience for their leadership teams.
Our beginnings
Court Lorenzini, founding CEO of DocuSign, helped start FounderNexus.
We brought founders together to share what they tried, what happened and what they would change. Those details help you judge what applies to your own work.
Why VEN
Sales, finance, product and people leaders share responsibility for the company plan. Each faces different decisions.
At VEN, you work through those decisions with peers and experienced advisors. Your VEN Partner gets to know your priorities and helps you find the right people and sessions.
Peer sessions
Your peers work at companies at a similar stage of growth. They understand the hiring, cash and customer pressures you face.
You compare approaches to a current decision and share your own experience.
Our mission
Companies represented in the FounderNexus community
