Founders Bay and Hustle Bring Two Fundraising Questions to Dinner
Investor interest and an investment commitment are different states. Founders Bay and Hustle’s November 18 dinner will make that distinction part of the program.
Founder/VC Dinner @ Hustle Fund is scheduled for November 18, 2026, from 6:00 PM PST to 9:00 PM PST (America/Los_Angeles), Location shared with confirmed guests, San Francisco, CA, US. The organizer withholds the exact street address until the guest-confirmation process. Registration requires organizer approval. Confirm admission before making plans.
The announced program
One panel, From Interest to Commitment, lists Ryan Green of Antler, Jerry Zhu of Plug and Play and Filip Orth of ZAKA VC. A second discussion on underestimated founders includes Joseph Nagle of Partner Track, Ishtiaque Mohammad of Astra Ventures and Tony S. Kim of Naver Ventures. You.com is named as a supporting partner.
A question to bring
Founders can listen for the evidence and process behind a commitment rather than treating a warm conversation as a completed round. The San Francisco location is withheld until the organizer’s admission process.
