About this event

Startups often focus on the product, the pitch, and the pivot—but forget the people. This event is designed to flip the script. “People First” is a powerful, tactical evening workshop and networking mixer built for startup founders, early-stage teams, and growth-stage leaders who want to build their companies with intention from the inside out.

Attendees will learn the foundational pillars of people strategy, how to outsource HR smartly, and how to stay compliant while scaling—without the overhead. Whether you’re hiring your first employee or thinking about culture as a competitive advantage, this session will give you the blueprint to lead with clarity and avoid costly missteps.

People Strategy for Startups: what it is and why it matters
