Betabooze: Notion x Founder Institute

🚀 Organized by Founder Institute, Notion Ambassadors & Betahaus

Calling all founders, startup teams, and Notion enthusiasts! Join us for Betabooze: Notion for Founders, an evening of pitching, networking, and discovering how Notion can become your startup’s one-stop shop for productivity, growth, and collaboration.

🚀 What is Founder Institute?

Founder Institute (FI) is the world’s largest pre-seed startup accelerator, helping early-stage entrepreneurs turn ideas into funded companies through mentorship, structured programs, and global startup resources. If you're serious about launching your startup, FI is where you get the support you need to scale.
