The Format
An Outwork table is six founders, one dinner, one conversation about what everyone is actually building. The format has a name: a founder dinner. It is already live: the first table seats in Miami on August 25, and repeats every last Tuesday.

The New York Table
More companies get started in New York than anywhere else on the East Coast, and the city still runs on rooms that are too big.
A chapter seats when six serious founders are confirmed and a private room is set. Requesting a seat is how the count gets to six. Referrals move it fastest.
Request a SeatBeyond the Dinner
The table is the front door to the rest of Outwork: founder support, networking, marketing, and brand work. Sit once and you are part of a founder community built six seats at a time, city by city.
Business Networking in New York
New York runs more networking events in a week than most cities hold in a quarter, and most of them are the same room with a different banner. An Outwork table is business networking cut down to the part that works: six people who run companies, one conversation with enough time to get specific.
Founders sit first, and the table is open to owners and operators who carry the same weight. If a year of Manhattan mixers has produced a stack of cards and nothing else, this is the other way to do it.
Questions
- Is there a founder dinner in New York?
- The New York chapter is forming now. The format is live at the Miami table, which seats August 25. Request a seat and you are on the list; the table is scheduled once six founders are confirmed.
- How does the chapter start?
- Six confirmed founders and one private room. Outwork curates the seats, sets the table, and runs the format.
- Do I need a referral?
- Referral first, but not referral only. The application asks who sent you, and blank is an acceptable answer.
- What is the format?
- Six founders, one conversation. No pitching, no audience. Dinner ends when the conversation does.
- Is this a networking event in New York?
- It is business networking at its smallest: six people who run companies, at dinner. There is no stage, no sponsor table, and no room to work. One conversation.
- Is the table only for startup founders?
- Founders are seated first, but the test is weight, not the word startup. Owners and operators who carry payroll and make final calls belong at a table like this.
