Founders. Wine. Epic fails!
22 MAY The Lisbon Founders 🔥F*ckUp Night🔥 is almost here — and it’s gonna be spicy. Like Georgian adjika, spicy!

We’re giving the mic to brave souls with stories so raw they could be served tartare:
💥 multi-million euro crashes
🥴 cofounders gone rogue
🫣 investors ghosting harder than Tinder dates
All mixed with Georgian food, wine, and enough startup therapy to get you through your next pivot.

Speakers get a free tickets & khachapuri — because if you’re brave enough to share your worst fail, you deserve at least one warm cheese hug. 🧀💔.

🥚 Easter reminds us that renewal is possible — not just in nature, but in us too.

🪄 At the Lisbon Founders Club, this season reminds us of the power of community, especially when all you crave is peace, simplicity, and a little break from calls and deadlines.
🙏 We hope you find time for inspiration, warm breakfasts, good people, and at least one day without CRM.
🌸 And if there’s folar da Páscoa or something sweet nearby — even better :)

With love,
The Lisbon Founders Club

Still dreaming of having your own satellite? 🛰️

Better hurry—after our April Business Breakfast, it might soon be cheaper than your iPhone.
Over a very Lisbon morning (coffee first, business after) we met two incredible space founders (names? classified).

We talked about:
🌍 Why space is no longer for NASA only?
🌖 The craziest projects already happening above our heads
🚀 What founders & investors should know before space becomes the new SaaS
🛰️ And yes... how soon you’ll be able to launch your own satellite like it’s a Shopify store

People left with new ideas, contacts, and maybe — just maybe — a tiny existential crisis about how fast the future is coming.

Missed it? Classic FOMO.
But hey, that’s why you should probably sit with us next time.

Our founders asked for more intensity and connection. We delivered.

Introducing Co-Burning Man by Lisbon Founders Club 🔥

For 3 days, we head deep into the Alentejo wilderness. No Wi-Fi. No trackers. No “let’s jump on a quick call.”

Here’s what goes down:
🔥 We burn NDAs and outdated beliefs
🧘 We meditate on CAC and LTV under the stars
📇 We communicate only through pitch cards
⛺ We build a Minimum Viable Shelter
🥶 And we perform cold outreach — in an actual freezing river

This isn’t a retreat. It’s a reboot.
It’s not about growth — it’s about rebirth.

Ready to let go of your KPIs and embrace the unknown? Spots are obviously limited — and strictly founder-only.

🚀 When 17 Founders Pack a Room to Learn AI Lead Generation Secrets...

Last week was INSANE - our business breakfast on “AI-Powered B2B Lead Generation” was completely overbooked with 17 ambitious founders!

If you missed it, you missed gold. Alex “Dyn” Pavlov (11 years in Tech, 3 years in AI) revealed his battle-tested playbook that’s generating 6-figure deals across industries.

While last week’s founders implement systems putting them months ahead of competition, others watch from the sidelines.

🔥 What You Missed:

• The exact LinkedIn automation stack comparison (and which popular tools are actually money pits)
• A bulletproof ABM email campaign architecture getting responses from even the most elusive C-suite execs
• Step-by-step templates and sequences implemented in real businesses

Just practical tools and sequences from someone launching 12 AI startups in 12 months (starting September 2024).

Only 3 spots remain for our next closed-door session. ⚠️ Not for everyone. We vet all applicants.

DM Anna Pavlova NOW before remaining spots vanish!

The Alarming Gender Gap: Where Are Portugal’s Women Founders? 👩‍💼
📊Just 22% of Portuguese startups have women founders, compared to 34% in Brazil. Shouldn’t this give us pause? 🤔

I’m convinced that cultural and gender diversity in business isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a competitive advantage. Diverse perspectives reveal the complete picture and drive innovation. 💡

That’s why supporting women founders is my absolute priority at Lisbon Founders Club! I’m thrilled to announce our newest initiative with our proud partners

💪 Business Speed Networking: Women Power 💪
An event for women entrepreneurs and male allies! Join us to:
🤝 Forge powerful business connections
💼 Share insights and expertise
🔍 Connect with mentors and investors
🌱 Build a supportive community

I want to showcase the incredible versatility and talent of women founders! How do they balance being devoted mothers (often single parents) while building remarkable businesses and maintaining their energy? If that’s not magic, what is? ✨

🎟️ For every ticket purchased, we’ll provide free entry to a woman founder of your choice (or one we select).

Let’s show our strength in numbers! Are you with us? ✨ Tag any women founders you know in the comments!
👇 Share this with anyone who needs to see it! 📣
