The board of directors every founder deserves — made of founders.
A curated, confidential peer board for founders running $5M to $50M companies. Small, non-competing cohorts that meet monthly to pressure-test the real decisions — facilitated by TRIARC, through the same three-pillar lens we bring to every engagement.
You have investors, a team, and advisors. You do not have peers.
Running a company is lonely at the exact moments it shouldn’t be. Your team needs you steady. Your board wants returns. Your family wants you home. None of them can be the room where you think out loud about the hard call.
The Founders’ Board is that room. Eight to ten people who have sat in your chair, bound by confidence, with no incentive to flatter you — and a facilitator whose only job is to make the hour count.
What is said in the room stays in the room.
Every engagement with TRIARC — and every seat on the Founders’ Board — is held in the strictest confidence. Membership is private, conversations are governed by mutual non-disclosure, and nothing leaves the table. That secrecy is the point: it is the only way a founder can stop performing and be entirely themselves.
Apply & match
Every member is vetted and placed into a small cohort matched by stage and temperament — never a competitor in the room.
The board meeting
A monthly facilitated session — structured, confidential, and run by TRIARC. No status updates, no theater. Decisions only.
The hot seat
Each meeting, members take the chair and put one real decision to the board — and leave with a clear read and committed next steps.
Between sessions
A private channel, warm introductions, and accountability that does not let a commitment quietly disappear.
A confidential room
Say the things you can’t say to your team, your board, or your spouse.
Outside judgment
Peers who have made the call you’re facing — with no stake in telling you what you want to hear.
Real accountability
Commitments made to peers get kept. Drift gets named out loud.
Curated peers
Matched by stage and temperament. Non-competing, every time.
TRIARC facilitation
Sessions run through the three-pillar lens, with frameworks — not vibes.
A network you can call
Warm intros, vendor referrals, and a thread that actually answers.
Twice a year, somewhere worth traveling to.
Members come together for semi-annual gatherings in remarkable places — two or three days of real working sessions, long dinners, and the kind of unhurried conversation a monthly call can never hold. Part board meeting, part reset, entirely off the record.
Built for a specific kind of founder.
Founders and owners of $5M–$50M companies.
Actively running the business, day to day.
Willing to be candid — and to hold confidence.
Non-competing with the others in their cohort.
A room worth showing up for.
Cohorts are small and filled by application. Tell us about the company you’re building.
