🇪🇸 DC BLACK Barcelona: 11 Spots Left
DC BLACK Barcelona is happening July 29-31: our fifth DC BLACK event.
It’s going to be a weekend of meaningful networking, high-level masterminds, structured group discussions, delicious meals, and engaging activities with 35 founders running 7+ figure businesses.
So far, 24 DC entrepreneurs have claimed their spots, including DCers who recently graduated to DC BLACK, members who were at DC MEXICO, and more women founders.
Last year’s attendees said:
"Love the smaller group, great for meeting everyone and reconnecting."
"I made some good connections and got a diverse range of perspectives on my current challenges."
“...incredible founders, who’re all struggling with similar problems and found unique and interesting solutions. It’s a powerful group of executors and nerds which is inspiring."
We’re capping the event at 35 members to keep it tight-knit and high ROI. This is our last full DC BLACK-only event before we meet up in New York in December.
