Sara Brooks, thank you for being a bright and wonderful part of Founderland and the consumer community.
If Coachella, Expo West, and the best dinner party (with the most wonderful humans in your industry) had a baby, Founderland would be it. Sean Kelly and Josh Wand — I was blown away by yesterday. Every detail was considered (chef’s kiss for that drumline!), every conversation inspiring, and no one wanted to leave when the clock struck nine (which says a lot, considering that marked 10 hours since the event began). Shannon Kelly, you are amazing! So great catching up with so many friends and clients from over the years. Can’t wait to do it all again next year.

Saying this means the world Steve Weiss - you’re an incredible member of our community and a value-add legend. Appreciate you and love what we’re building together!
I don't brag a lot about conferences but got to give big props Sean Kelly, Shannon Kelly, and Josh Wand and the rest of the Family Fund team. FounderLand is probably my favorite conference of the year, I always walk away making 1 or 2 incredible friendships. They've cultivated such an incredible group of people that they bring together every year. They are the true definition of "building a community" and a safe space to share knowledge, intel, and opportunities. I am proud to be an LP in they're fund and even more happy to be friends with both of them.

Thank you Shawn Darmody for your support of the consumer ecosystem and for being such a great partner to brands. Having you at Founderland was a highlight of the event and we hope to have you join us for many years to come. Your panel was outstanding and we appreciate you bringing so much knowledge and experience to the Founder Community. Thanks for your wisdom, positivity, energy and magic!
Thrilled to have joined the incredible energy at Founderland last week and to connect with so many inspiring founders, innovators, and disruptors who are charting a new direction for the CPG industry! Huge thanks to Josh Wand, Sean Kelly and the entire team at The Family Fund & Founder Community for the invitation and for hosting such a fantastic event. It was also an honor to sit on a panel with legendary founders Stephen Ellsworth (poppi), Brianna Bitton (O Positiv Health), Bobby Bitton (O Positiv Health), and our natural-born moderator, Sean Kelly. These founders put it all on the line to bring their visions to life — and it’s a privilege for all of us in retail to partner with brands like these to deliver bold, exciting innovation to our customers. Let's keep it going! #CPG #Innovation #Entrepreneurship #Founders #Retail #BrandBuilding
