Connecting Dallas’ Brightest Founders Over Good Times, Community, & Shared Experiences

Dallas is one of America’s fastest-growing cities, thriving with entrepreneurial energy. But we heard from founders like you. a place to connect, share ideas, and grow together was missing. That’s why we built it.

Dallas Founders Club’s a platform for entrepreneurs to spark ideas, forge connections, and build friendships over drinks, events, & conversations.

What makes us different?

Dallas Founders Club is community-led and member-driven, built by founders, for founders. Every event takes place in a founder-owned space, whether it’s one of our members’ restaurants, homes, or businesses, giving everyone a chance to connect inside the places our founders have built. It keeps our gatherings authentic, personal, and rooted in the entrepreneurial heartbeat of Dallas.

Our Upcoming Gathering

Founders Night at SMU: A Conversation with Rogers Healy

​Four times a year, Dallas Founders Club brings the whole community into one room. This is that event. ​

We'll sit down for a conversation with Rogers Healy, exited founder and now partner at Morrison Seger Venture Capital Partners, to talk through the full arc: building the firm, selling it, and what he looks for now as an investor. This won't be an auditorium style lecture, but an intimate conversation followed by founder Q&A.

The conversation is the anchor, not the whole event. The real value of a DFC gathering is the room: real founders meeting real founders, unhurried, no agenda beyond getting to know who else is building here. Several founders have found business partners or struck deals at past events.

Heavy hors d'oeuvres, drinks, and parking on Bishop Boulevard included. Must be 21 years of age with valid I.D. to attend.

RSVP on Luma or through the embedded page below.
