Meridian
A peer community for the founders and operators building the Triangle's most ambitious companies.
Apply NowThe Research Triangle has world-class universities, deep technical talent, and an increasingly serious base of founders, operators, and investors. What it has lacked is a real peer community for the people building ambitious companies here.
Not a conference. Not a Slack group. Not another networking organization.
Meridian is a selective community for founders, operators, engineers, and investors shaping the next generation of important companies in the Triangle. A place where membership means something, conversations are candid, and relationships compound over time.
We're assembling the founding cohort now. If you're building something ambitious in Raleigh, Durham, or Chapel Hill, we'd like to know who you are.
Who it's for
- Founders of venture-backed or high-growth companies
- Senior operators at breakout Triangle companies
- Active investors deploying into the region
- Engineers and researchers doing frontier work
- A small cohort of emerging builders early in their arc
Membership is selective. Founding membership is limited.
What to expect
- Small, high-signal dinners across Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill
- An annual summit bringing the full community together
- A peer network you'll actually use
