Founder’s note: Breakthrough Bistro with Vanta’s Christina Cacioppo

What happens when you put 11 founders in a penthouse and tell them it's off the record?

You get a lot of "just do it".

Maybe Nike was onto something. Why don’t they sponsor founders like they do golfers?

Co-hosted an incredible Breakthrough Bistro dinner with my friend Xavier Pladevall, featuring Christina Cacioppo, founder of Vanta, as our guest of honor.

Christina set the tone with her honesty, and the group followed suit. Huge thanks to the founders who showed up and made the night unforgettable.

And a special shoutout to realtor Annie Lu for hosting us at 301 Mission Street - the place is absurd.

Here’s to cool places, cool people, and more in-person. 🥂
