Women Founders Lunch in Burbank: Power of Your Network by FoundHER and FundHER
Friday, November 6, 2026, 11:00 AM PST – 1:00 PM PST
Los Angeles, California
Hosted by FoundHER & FundHER
THE RIGHT ROOM CHANGES WHAT'S POSSIBLE. Los Angeles is full of networking events. This isn't one of them. FoundHER & FundHER brings a carefully curated group of women founders, investors, and strategic partners together around one table for the conversations that actually move businesses forward. Not hundreds of people. Not a room you have to work. A seat. A table. The right women. And enough time to actually know one another. Because sometimes one conversation is all it takes. The right introduction becomes a customer. A referral opens a door. Someone knows the person you need to meet. An investor becomes a trusted relationship long before a raise begins. THIS MONTH: THE POWER OF YOUR NETWORK On November 6th, we're focusing on one of the most valuable assets you can build as a founder: your network. Not how many people you know. Not how many business cards you collect. Who knows you, understands what you're building, and is willing to open a door for you. We'll use our time around the table to get clearer about the relationships we need to grow our businesses and how we can become valuable connections for one another. If October was about the money, November is about the people who can help you make it, keep it, and grow it. WHAT YOU'LL LEAVE WITH Greater clarity about who you need in your network right now New relationships with women who understand the entrepreneurial journey Opportunities to make and receive meaningful introductions At least one introduction, referral, idea, or resource you didn't walk in with A stronger network built through real conversation, not collecting contacts THE CONNECTION EXCHANGE Everyone at the table comes prepared to ask for something and offer something. An introduction. A referral. Expertise. A resource. A connection. Tell us who you need to meet. Tell us what could move your business forward. Then listen for the opportunity to open a door for another woman at the table. We don't measure a lunch by how many people you meet. We measure it by whether you met someone who matters. FOR FOUNDERS Come ready to share what you're building, where you're going, and what you need most right now: customers, capital, partnerships, advice, visibility, talent, or introductions. Ask for what you need. Then open a door for someone else. FOR INVESTORS Meet women founders before the relationship becomes a transaction. Hear what they're building, understand what drives them, and discover companies and founders outside traditional deal-flow channels. GOOD TO KNOW Your $20 ticket reserves your seat at the table. Lunch is ordered and paid for separately at the venue. Seats are intentionally limited to protect the quality of conversation. Tickets are non-refundable and non-transferable. QUESTIONS, ANSWERED What happens at a FoundHER & FundHER lunch? A curated group of women founders, investors, and strategic partners share a meal and a facilitated conversation. Everyone introduces their business, names what they need, and offers what they can give. Do I need to be raising money to attend? No. Founders at every stage are welcome, from idea to scaling. Investors and strategic partners join us too. What should I bring? Yourself, your business story, and a notepad. Most importantly, come knowing what you need right now and what you might be able to offer someone else. Where do the lunches happen? We host monthly lunches across Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley. This month's venue is listed above. A NOTE FROM LISA I'm not just the woman running the room. I'm a founder too. I've built businesses, raised money, and sat exactly where you're sitting, wondering if the right people were in the room. I created this community for founders and funders: the woman building something that matters, who needs the right people and the right capital around her to grow it. Because building a business is hard enough. You shouldn't have to build it alone. I can't wait to meet you!
