Startups Chat

If you're an entrepreneur with an idea you're excited about, or someone who wants to connect with others who follow the startup world, this room is for you. Members come from across the Spanish-speaking world — Madrid, Buenos Aires, Mexico City — ready to share experience and knowledge about building companies. This is a good place to find support, advice or just a conversation with someone who understands the grind.

In Chat Startups, everything gets discussed — from getting your first round of funding to managing a remote team across time zones. Someone recently broke down the difference between a pivot and a failure. Another day there was a real debate about whether building in Spain or Latin America gives you more room to experiment. The discussions are substantive but the tone stays human.

What sets this room apart is the mix. You get people who have already exited a company sitting next to someone who is still working out their idea, and both conversations are worth having. The humor is there — entrepreneurship has enough material for a lifetime of jokes — but people come here to actually think and talk, not just pitch.
