# Event Details - **Event Name**: Zurich Founder Table: Bring One Bottleneck, Leave With Answers - **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 03 Sep, 2026 at 06:00 pm – Thu, 03 Sep, 2026 at 08:30 pm (+02:00) - **Event Description**: Startup and founder networking in Zurich — but the room works: bring one bottleneck, five people take it apart, nobody leaves empty.About this EventFounder networking in Zurich usually means a room full of business cards. This one asks what's stuck.Pricing that isn't converting. A first sales hire you keep postponing. A churn number you can't explain. You send it in before the evening, it goes on the board, the room votes — and the problems people care about get a table and twenty-five minutes of five smart people working on them.🔍 HOW A PROBLEM ACTUALLY GETS WORKED ONTwo minutes to explain it. Three minutes of questions - no solutions yet, and this is the part that usually reframes the whole thing. Then eight minutes while the table works on it out loud and you turn your chair around and take notes. You don't defend, you don't explain, you write. Two minutes at the end for what you're taking away. Then a new vote, a new table, and you spend the second half being useful to someone else.What makes it work: we share experience, not advice — nobody is allowed to tell you what to do, only what happened to them. And Chatham House Rule means people bring their real problems instead of the polished ones.🎯 NOBODY LEAVES WITH NOTHINGBefore we scatter, the host asks one question out loud: who still doesn't have an answer? Every hand gets the room's attention — and someone in it has the contact you need. That's the last twenty minutes of the evening, and it's often where the useful thing happens.🤝 AND THE SIDE EFFECT WORTH MENTIONINGTwo hours of solving problems next to people is how co-founders, advisors and first hires actually find each other. You mark who you'd work with again — and we connect you only when both sides say yes, within 48 hours. No cold intros, no lists.📋 ONE THING IS REQUIRED BEFORE YOU COMEAfter you book, you'll get a short form in our Mini App: your problem in one line, a bit of context, and how long it's been unresolved. Three minutes. It goes on the board and the room votes — if your problem isn't submitted, it isn't on the board. You'll still be in the room and in the closing round, just working on someone else's problem.👥 WHO'S IN THE ROOM· Founders pre-seed to Series A· Technical builders and operators· People who came to solve, not to be sold to.Hosted by Andrey Krylow. He greets every guest at the door, seats you at the right table, and makes the introductions - nobody stands alone at this event.WHAT'S GUARANTEED: a curated room of 30–45 people, two working sessions, mutual matches within 48 hours.WHAT WE DON'T PROMISE: a room full of investors. Some evenings have angels and scouts in the room, some don't - we'd rather you know that before you buy.Three rules, said out loud in sixty seconds: what's said here stays here · we share experience, not advice · moving to another table mid-session is normal, not rude.Registration required — the room caps at 45.
