Apply to Join Jacksonville Founders
Jacksonville Founders is a curated, invitation-only network of entrepreneurs building companies at the 7–9 figure level. We don’t believe in surface-level networking. Our community exists to connect ambitious leaders with true peers — people who understand the unique challenges of scaling, leading, and growing at this level.
How it works:
Apply Once → We review every application to ensure caliber, fit, and alignment.
Join the Network → If accepted, you’ll receive confirmation and ongoing access to our private newsletter + event invitations.
Attend Events → Each month we host invite-only lunches, dinners, and happy hours. Seats are limited to ~40 founders per event, and attendance is curated based on industry mix, rotation, and first-come RSVP.
Attendance is complimentary for accepted founders. All gatherings are underwritten by select partners who believe in supporting Jacksonville’s growth economy.
Note: You only need to apply once to join the Jacksonville Founders Network. Acceptance confirms your place in the community. Event attendance is curated separately for each gathering based on industry mix, rotation, and first-come RSVP. Even if you can’t attend a specific event, you’ll continue receiving invitations and newsletter access.
