Pendulum Launches the Founders Series
Pendulum, a distinguished platform dedicated to exclusive events, launched its latest initiative, the
Pendulum Founders Series, aimed at creating valuable connections between budding entrepreneurs and influential investors. Expected to bridge the gap between early-stage startups and a select network of venture capitalists, family offices, and angel investors, this program focuses primarily on technology and artificial intelligence while also shining a light on sectors such as cybersecurity, robotics, and Web3 innovations.
The Founders Series enhances networking opportunities through tailored networking sessions, engaging panels, and informative roundtables. Rather than superficial exchanges, the series encourages attendees to engage deeply with one another, fostering vital relationships that can catalyze business growth. Each event promises a unique structure, seamlessly integrating networking with insights from successful venture capitalists and proven startup founders.
Strategic Locations
New York and Los Angeles have been chosen as the flagship locations for the Pendulum Founders Series, taking advantage of the significant concentration of investors and pioneering startups within these cities. The inaugural event will take place on
October 14 in Los Angeles, coinciding with
LA Tech Week, followed by monthly panels in both Los Angeles and New York City. Additionally, a Grand Prix event will be organized in Austin on
October 16.
Magnolia Sevenler, the founder of Pendulum, elaborated, "At its core, the Founders Series is a platform for meaningful connections that could lead to co-founding opportunities, investments, or collaborations that shape the future of business. We've crafted a space that minimizes the noise of conventional networking, promoting substantive conversations that foster genuine connections. In the future, we envision expanding this community beyond New York and Los Angeles to cities like London, Singapore, and Hong Kong."
To enhance participants' experience, Pendulum will also initiate a weekly newsletter featuring insights created by founders, designed specifically for fellow founders.
Building a Legacy of Exceptional Events
This launch reflects Pendulum's established reputation for organizing extraordinary experiences at major cultural events, including
Art Basel,
Formula 1,
New York Fashion Week, and
London Fashion Week. Collaborations with prominent brands such as Burberry showcase Pendulum's capability to draw notable audiences. Their production arm, Pendulum Live, has successfully orchestrated music festivals attracting thousands, with acts like Tiësto and The Chainsmokers gracing the lineup.
The growing demand for curated professional gatherings emphasizes the need for exclusive event experiences that deliver value. Although numerous networking clubs and business socials have surged in popularity, few offer premium experiences or facilitate meaningful connections. Distinguishing itself with a proven track record, Pendulum is poised to bring together these vibrant communities.
Despite the fluctuating landscape, global startup funding reached an impressive
$91 billion in Q2 2025, indicating a rebound in private markets, according to
Crunchbase data. Though still below the lofty heights witnessed in 2021, the first half of 2025 marked a significant uptick in venture investments, suggesting optimism for future entrepreneurial endeavors.
