What We're Doing: We're trying something new this time, and will be joined by Ben Faw, who will talk about the life-cycle of an early stage company from founding to exit for anyone interested in entrepreneurship and the startup ecosystem. After a short discussion with Ben, we will have ample time together to see old friends and make new ones, as always!
We expect it to be the usual raucous Saturday evening, starting at 5pm on September 14th at Schroeder's in SF. The $20 price pays for an open beer bar (until the tab runs out!) and the space for us to gather. Significant others and civilian veteran supporters are welcome!Ben's Background: Ben Faw is Co-founder and COO at BestReviews. BestReviews was Acquired by Tribune Publishing (TPCO), for over $110M in February 2018, and Ben led the M&A process for BestReviews with Lazard as bankers, and MoFo as legal advisors. Ben is also a board member at Beauty Bakerie, and a board observer or advisor to several other early stage companies. Ben also serves as an advisor to several large media companies around the intersection of tech, e-commerce, and media. Prior to BestReviews Ben was at LinkedIn, Tesla, UBS (investment banking), as well as a few start-ups as a Co-Founder. Ben served as an Infantry Platoon Leader in MND-North from 2008 - 2009, and is a graduate of the standard military schools and West Point. Why We Do This: These events are casual gatherings of veterans and significant others with no axes to grind. It's a group to share with anyone you would want in a fighting hole / fox hole / cockpit / standing watch with you.
