Welcome to the New Era of Startup Support in South Florida
Calling all early-stage founders, entrepreneurs, and startup dreamers — the South Florida Tech Hub Startup Founders Peer Group is back and better than ever!
Join us for a special kickoff session where we’ll reconnect, realign, and relaunch this space just for YOU. Whether you’re still validating your idea or scaling your product, this peer group is a judgment-free zone where founders can talk openly about wins, losses, goals, and next steps.
What to Expect:
- Meet the New Chairs: Meet your new group leaders, Anita Patel and Garrett Kellner, who will share their backgrounds, goals, and vision for the group.
- A Look Ahead: We’ll discuss the 2025 schedule, potential guest speakers, and the kinds of support you can expect—from funding tips to founder wellness.
- Founder-Focused Format: This isn’t a webinar. It’s an interactive session designed for connection and collaboration.
- Have Your Say: What would you love to see in this group? Let’s shape the future of the program together.

You’re a startup founder looking for a genuine community
You want to learn, vent, and celebrate in a room full of people who get it
