About this event

Your team can be your biggest competitive advantage or your most expensive mistake.

Early-stage hiring decisions, equity splits, and incentive structures have long-term consequences that most founders only discover when it's too late to fix them easily.

In this session, Patricia Wing (SuLe) and Sam Simpson (FounderCatalyst) break down how to build a team structure that attracts the right people, keeps them motivated, and protects the business as you grow. 🚀

This session is candid, practical, and grounded in real founder experience - not HR theory.
