This Week in 757 (Events) February 23, 2026

FEATURED EVENT
“Mastering Monthly Investor Updates: The Key to Building Trust and Securing Future Funding” Workshop
February 27 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm [Register]

Many founders are hesitant to share progress, not just with investors, but with customers, followers, and people who may invest someday. It can feel too early, too imperfect, or not worth talking about yet. But consistent investor updates, done well, can become a compounding advantage, increasing visibility, sharpening your story, and opening doors long before you’re actively raising.

Join Tim Ryan and Brittany Peregoff for a practical session on using monthly updates as a leverage tool. Tim has invested in 30+ companies and reviewed thousands of updates through 757 Accelerate, Launchpad, REaKTOR, and Start Peninsula, while Brittany has raised over $100,000, gone through the Jason Calacanis Launch Accelerator, and won Start Peninsula 2025. Lunch is included and seating is limited. Secure your spot today!
