By Invitation Only

Every few weeks, we gather a small room of founders at The Standard Club. Wine, small desserts, and a short talk from Jason on building a business that runs without you. Then conversation, the kind that only happens when the room is curated.

No pitches. No agenda beyond the room itself.

What to Expect

An Evening in Three Movements

I.

A Curated Room

Fifteen to twenty high-level entrepreneurs. Wine, small desserts, and the kind of conversation that only happens when the room is chosen with intention.

II.

A Twenty-Minute Talk

Jason shares a short, direct conversation on building a company that runs without you. It's the freedom problem every founder eventually meets.

III.

Real Conversation

The talk ends. The room opens up. You leave with two or three founders you'll want to stay in touch with, and a clearer view of your own next step.

How the Room Stays New

Bring a Founder When You Come Back.

You're welcome at Circle & Sip once as a first-time guest. After that, returning is simple. Bring another entrepreneur worth the room with you, and you're both in.

That's the cost of admission, and it's why every evening is a fresh group of founders meeting each other for the first time.*

* Alumni can return to a standing Circle & Sip evening anytime they bring another entrepreneur new to the room. Alumni-only gatherings are also planned for the future.

Who We're Curating For

Founders Still in the Room.

Circle & Sip is built for entrepreneurs who are still shaping the business day-to-day and ready to talk honestly about what comes next.

  • $3M+ in annual revenue, or $300K+ EBITDA
  • Founder or owner of the business
  • Still actively operating the company
  • Based in Nashville or willing to travel
