About this Event
---------------------
Join Austin’s dedicated international founders community. 🌍
Welcome to the Austin International Founders Meetup, brought to you by International Founders Network (IFN).
If you’re an international founder, immigrant entrepreneur, or building a global startup in Austin, this community is for you.
Austin attracts world-class talent but the international founder journey comes with “hidden” hurdles: immigration complexity, unfamiliar funding norms, and rebuilding a high-trust network from scratch.
IFN brings this monthly meetup from a high-signal community designed to make that journey faster, smarter, and less lonely.
We bring together founders and globally-minded operators to share the unwritten rules of the Austin startup ecosystem and help each other move from introductions to real momentum.
What to expect
- High-signal networking: founder-focused connections across stages (idea → Seed → Series B+)
- The Tactical Spotlight: Short, expert-led deep dives into issues faced by international founders.
- Founder-to-founder problem solving: hiring, fundraising, GTM, banking, legal/immigration logistics, and operator lessons learned
- Expert access (occasionally): investors, attorneys, operators, and immigrant founders who’ve built here
- Actionable resources: practical templates, referrals, and collaborations; minus the fluff
Who should join
- International & Immigrant Founders: Whether you are new to Austin or already scaling here.
- Global Operators: Tech leaders and builders exploring their next entrepreneurial move.
- Allies & Mentors: Investors, attorneys, and mentors who actively support international expansion.
If you’re building in Austin but thinking globally, you’re in the right place.
When: 4th Thursday of every month
Where: Station Austin, ACL Room (16th floor)
Come say hi and bring a founder friend.
