Being a founder definitely has its ups and downs. Richard Steel knows all about it - as a founder and investor. Learn from his journey of success and fails, and his take on what's involved in being an ESG founder.

HAE Salons are bi-weekly meetings open to qualified attendees. These live networking sessions bring together our community in a compact 25-minute format focused on Founders.

You’ll introduce yourself, meet new people with shared interests, reconnect with old friends, and learn something new. You can also join the Founders group on HAE Connect to continue the conversation and more networking. HAE Connect is exclusively for HAE members

Salons are conducted under Chatham House Rules: Participants are free to use the information received, but neither the identity nor the affiliation of the speaker(s), nor that of any other participant, may be revealed.

Space is limited. Preference will be given to HAE members.
