Meet female founders for the “most energizing way to network.”
This is a casual format where you’ll connect with at least 5+ extraordinary women founders—either 1x1 or in small, intimate groups—for meaningful conversations.
Think: less stiff small talk, more “wow, we just became friends in 10 minutes.”
💫 Your host: Mari Milenkovic is a powerhouse connector, Dreamers & Doers member, and the founder of With Mari, a marketing consultancy that helps brands stand out with heart and strategy. She’s known for hosting gatherings that leave people feeling inspired, seen, and ready to take action.
🤝This event is created in partnership with Dreamers & Doers, a curated community and PR Hype Machine™ designed to amplify extraordinary women entrepreneurs and leaders.
This format is a D&D classic, typically hosted online, but Mari is bringing it IRL for LA Tech Week!
💌 Here’s what other founders have said about past Speed Connections:
“Holy cow, that was the best ‘networking’ I’ve ever done!”
“This was amazing! I needed this so much.”
“So, so much fun. What a great mood enhancer.”
🌟 What might happen for you at this special event? We’ve seen attendees walk away with:
A new client or customer (sometimes the dream client)
Their next business partner or team member
An unexpected collaboration that changes everything
An introduction to someone who can open a big door
A friendship that becomes the highlight of their founder journey
…and countless “we should totally work together” moments ✨
📆 How it works:
Through a facilitated experience (starting promptly at 6:30pm), Mari will personally match you with fellow attendees and gift you thoughtful conversation starters—like “What’s a dream or idea you haven’t spoken out loud yet?”—to get the magic flowing.
🎟This is an intentionally curated gathering
Between friends of Mari, Dreamers & Doers, and LA Tech Week, it will be an exceptional crew of women.
❗To ensure we get an accurate count for the space, please RSVP only if you’re certain you’ll be able to attend.
If you’re a Dreamers & Doers member, your $29 ticket fee is covered at no cost to you.
Come with an open heart, a curious mind, and get ready for magic!
This event is a part of #LATechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at www.tech-week.com.
