Networking isn’t about walking into a crowded room and hoping you just happen to meet the right person. At the TechCrunch Founder Summit, hosted by Fidelity Private Shares, founders and VCs have several ways to be more intentional about the connections they build beyond the session.

Networking aimed at breaking boundaries
Founder Summit Networking Lounge, powered by Braindate, allows attendees to schedule one-on-one and small group conversations around specific topics.

In other words, you don’t have to leave networking entirely to chance. Want to compare funding strategies? Talk about recruiting challenges? Find another founder looking to snag a company’s sales? Meet someone who’s building in Boston?
Find people who want to have the same conversation by asking questions and offering your own experiences.
Turn your session into a conversation
Braindate also provides participants with the opportunity to continue ideas started elsewhere in the program.
Hear Kent Bennett discuss product-market fit, then connect with other founders grappling with the same questions.
Watch a founder pitch himself in front of investors and compare his notes to someone preparing for a raise.
Hear Chase Garbarino talk about architecture in Boston, then meet other founders who are doing just that.
You can start a conversation from a session. Networking gives you the next opportunity to use it.
Connect across the Founder Summit experience
Connections are not limited to one lounge. Roundtables create small, topic-based conversations. During breakout sessions, a panel on stage will address questions from attendees in the room. The Expo Hall will host attendees and partners throughout the day. A closing reception gives founders, investors, and management time to continue the conversation without rushing to another session.

The TechCrunch Founder Summit experience also extends beyond the venue and the day of the event, with official side events taking place throughout the week across Boston.
A separate notes page may not be the most helpful when leaving an event. Someone you didn’t know that morning.
