Founder Breakfast with Henrik Werdelin

Founder Breakfast with Henrik Werdelin is deliberately small. Andrew Yeung and Henrik Werdelin are bringing 30 early-stage founders and builders together for breakfast and a candid conversation about finding problems worth pursuing, building companies people care about, and operating through the next phase of AI.

The value is the room design. Founders at the pre-seed through Series A stages often need honest operating context more than another broad panel. A smaller table creates space to discuss delegation, customer understanding, company formation, and the decisions that stop being theoretical once a team, product, and cap table exist.

What the event is built around

• Finding customer problems that deserve a company
• Lessons from building BARK and creating companies through Prehype
• How AI changes the cost and accessibility of entrepreneurship
• Founder judgment, company design, and early-stage operating choices

Who should have it on the radar

The breakfast is intended for early-stage founders and builders, with most attendees expected to be operating between pre-seed and Series A. Attendance requires approval, and the organizer will share the private Manhattan venue with accepted guests.

What to watch

Henrik Werdelin brings experience from BARK, Prehype, and Audos, while Andrew Yeung has built a large network of founder and technology gatherings through fibe and related communities. Watch for the practical lessons that only appear after a founder has repeated the company-building process more than once.
