Every quarter, we host 1st Mondays on the first Monday of the month. San Diego’s startup community comes together for an expert panel to share information, support one another, and create long-lasting relationships over delicious food and cold beverages.
This is your chance to connect with other startup founders, exchange ideas, and meet your next CTO, Co-founder, and possibly a potential investor!
Upcoming 1st Mondays for 2026:
Join us for 1st Mondays and get connected with the local San Diego startup community!
Our 1st Mondays events are growing each year, and we now have an average of around 250-300 people attending each event. From investors to new startup owners to students, industry professionals, the crowd is very diverse, but we all have one thing in common—we’re there to network, learn, and connect!
