Side Hustle to Solopreneur Meetup IRL/Hybrid Monthly,

About the event
This event brings solopreneurs, artists, creators, and entrepreneurs at any stage together, both in real life and virtually, to connect, collaborate, and grow. Each meetup features a guest who shares their real journey of becoming an entrepreneur, including the wins, the lessons, and what they’d do differently. We also keep it fun with high-energy networking and a live DJ, so people can celebrate the journey together while building real relationships.
Why should you sponsor?
A sponsor should support this event because it puts your brand in front of a growing community of solopreneurs, creators, and early-stage entrepreneurs who actively invest in tools, services, and partners that help them build.
You are not just getting a logo placement. You are powering an experience people remember, with real in-person connection, a live virtual audience, and ongoing visibility through our Eventbrite promotion, PeerFounder.com placement, and YouTube recap content. Supporting the event also positions your brand as a champion of entrepreneurship and community, which builds trust fast.
