Founder Hour gives AC clients the opportunity to learn more about their peers, heighten collaboration and network with other likeminded founders within the AC community!
Once a month, two founders share a little bit about themselves, their companies, and experiences as trailblazers in their industry. At the end of each speaker’s talk, there will be time for questions and networking for all attendees.
Join us as we hear from Victor Salinas of SmartConcil and Aaron Barth of Learning Snippets
