Timezone

As the Houston Spring 2025 Founder Institute cohort gets underway, join this private VIP event reserved for FI Mentors, Local Directors, Partners, and Enrolled Founders. The event will follow the Spring '25 cohort orientation session with a keynote speaker, quick introductions to the newest batch of FI Houston cohort Founders, an introduction to Amy Tran - the new Investor-In-Residence at FI Houston, followed by a casual open networking session with local entrepreneurs, advisors, and investors from the Founder Institute Houston network. Weather depending, we may move this event outside to The Powder Keg - adjacent to The Cannon on the north side of the building (next to the Volleyball courts).

Keynote Speaker: Martín Martinez, Executive Director at The Founder Institute Texas

Martín led the way in Austin to establish the first Founder Institute Chapter in Texas in 2017. A year later the Houston chapter came online at Station Houston, then in the Dallas- Ft. Worth area in 2019. This spring San Antonio is ramping up a chapter and hosting their inaugural cohort. Exciting times serving hundreds of early-stage founders across the Lone Star State! A natural networker and confident public speaker, Martín is guiding the diretor teams in Texas, and serves at the HQ level as the Founder Institute Partnership lead.
