Thrive’s Annual Summit Is Most The Vetted Room of Founders You'll Step Into This Year

October 21–22, 2025 - Convene - 30 S 17th St - Philadelphia

Something happens when you’re in the right room. You stop trying to prove yourself. You ask better questions. You say the hard thing out loud. And you realize everyone else is figuring it out too.

That’s what this summit is for.

We’re bringing together 250 of the sharpest, most grounded founders we know. The ones who are in it for real and want to get better.

If you’re here, someone from our team or community saw something in you. That invite means something.

You’ll leave with new relationships, sharper ideas, and the kind of momentum you can’t fake.

Two Days. One Room. Real Conversations.

The theme of this year’s summit is You Already Belong. It’s a reminder that you don’t need permission to take your next step. You just need the right room.

This is an invite-only summit built to create the kinds of conversations most founders never get to have. You’ll spend two days in curated peer breakouts, hands-on strategy sessions, and deep conversations about what’s really working, and what’s not. You’ll meet people you’ll still be talking to six months later.

You’ll also eat well. Breakfast, lunch, and a fully stocked snack bar. Both days :)

Tickets are $575.

First come, first served.

This includes:

  • Full summit access (Oct 21–22, 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM)

  • Curated small group breakouts

  • Tactical workshops led by top-founders

  • Breakfast and lunch both days

  • All-day snack bar (yes, unlimited)

    You’re on your own for travel and lodging, but we have travel partners who will help get you the best deals!

You’ll Walk Away With More Than You Expected.

You’ll get into the kinds of conversations most founders wish they could have. The kind where no one’s pretending and everyone’s sharp.

We vetted every seat in this room. You’ll be surrounded by some of the most humble, impressive founders from around the globe. The kind of people who will challenge how you think, push you to grow, and remind you that you’re not doing this alone.

You’ll walk out clearer, more fired up, and probably wondering why it took you so long to get in a room like this.

We’re Doing This Because It Matters.

Most founders go years without ever talking to people who actually get it. This summit fixes that.

We called the theme You Already Belong because it’s true. Being a founder is insanely tough and not many people understand why. But just because it’s tough doesn’t mean this is right where you were always meant to be.

This is for people who are building real businesses and want to get sharper alongside other founders doing the same. If that’s you (and if you’re reading this page, it is), we’d love to have you.
