The real reason 1,000+ founders have joined Hampton
You need people who actually get it.
Running a company is a lonely job. Hampton members tell it like it is—the wins, losses, midnight panic attacks, all of it. Your core group becomes more than advisors. These are the people you grab dinner with, text random ideas to, and actually trust.
You're tired of advice from people who've never done it.
When a Hampton member says 'I know how to fix this,' they've actually done it. Not theoretically. Not in a Twitter thread. You get specific playbooks from people who've been there, done that. Skip the mistakes, copy what works.
Most founder events are a waste of time.
We've built something different. While everything is moving online, we're going hard on IRL. We've got 150+ serious founders in NYC doing dinners, business roundtables, pickleball - real stuff where real relationships happen. And every connection matters because we're picky about who gets in.

FAQ

Sample answer
Why Hampton might not be for you
It’s an investment.
Of your time and money.
Running a business is hard. You’re exhausted most days. You don't want to talk with others.
And that’s totally fine.
But here’s what happens to the members who lean in:
They show up to Core even after a brutal day.
They go to a retreat with their Core group despite their calendar being a mess.
They share their real problems, not just their highlight reel.
And they don't regret it.
Because they find something rare - people who actually understand what they’re going through. And so they get solutions to their problems.
The stuff you can’t post about or Google.
Its life changing.
If you want something you can just dip in and out of when it’s convenient, Hampton probably isn’t for you.
But if you’re ready to put in the work to build real relationships with founders who get your challenges?
Then we should talk.
