Founder Peer Group Meetup - Discovery Mode: Six Months of Finding What to Build

Join Kieran White, founder and CEO of Mantle, and Matthew Joehnk, co-founder of 9Zero, for a candid fireside chat on the discovery phase: the six months Kieran spent exploring ideas, testing assumptions and finding the problem worth building around. Kieran has been through the full startup journey. He previously founded Curo (YC F24), a fleet EV charging and parking marketplace that raised $6M+ and scaled to 15+ states, serving companies like Google, Uber, Zoox, Zipcar, Cox Enterprises, Boston Properties and Irvine Company. Curo was acquired by Inspiration Mobility Group ($415M raised). Today, he's building Mantle, the pit crew for machines and robots, which installs, fixes and maintains deployed equipment for the companies that build them. Whether you're searching for your next idea or pressure-testing your current one, come hear what discovery really looks like from someone who's done it. __ About Peer Groups: 🔗 Peer Groups are role-based groups for members at your level.
