The startup space is full of many joys but also numerous challenges. There is the ability to create meaningful products and services for others, but often times there can be feelings of extreme loneliness. There is the chance to provide life changing work for employees, but also the burden of meeting financial quotas. Founders can earn the praise of the public, while at the same time the fiduciary scrutiny of investors. The ups and downs of this journey can feel isolating and often discouraging with no clear person to share the struggle with. Christians working in this space are not immune to these challenges. Understanding how to trust God in this journey can feel daunting.

With this in mind, we are partnering with Faith Driven Entrepreneur and Faith Driven Investor to host quarterly gatherings for founders, freelance workers, those in the startup space, and investors. The desire for these events is to create regular opportunities for entrepreneurs to gather, make new connections, and hear encouraging stories of how God is faithful even in the ups and downs of a business journey. The next event will be a luncheon Tuesday, September 19, from 11:45am-1:00pm at Branch Technology. Lunch will be served and you will have the chance to meet and share stories with other founders who are navigating what it means to lead or fund an endeavor while also faithfully following Christ.

We are excited to have Branch Technology host this event and also have their leadership team share about what it has looked like to trust God in the building of the company.

We hope you will join us for a time of networking and encouragement.
