Founder retreats
"This was a remarkable event. I'm not someone who gravitates towards 'retreats' and generally would rather just work on the business. There is so much thought that goes into the agenda and attendee list, and it gave me a context to do some personal development that I have not had in quite a while"
- Shreyas Vijaykumar, Vontive
"Village Global founder's retreat is always an amazing place to learn and make connections with fellow entrepreneurs. The perspectives, approaches, flurries of new ideas, and pitching strategies amongst founders in the same shoes or to seasoned veterans is incredibly valuable and insightful."
- Matthias Hofmann, Eyebot
"I’ve been to many of these types of things and this is the best one I’ve been to."
- Tony Small, HeyLibby
"this past retreat keeps on giving for me; we have connected nonstop with the people I met; it has been amazing."
- Francoise Lavertu, Desteia
"I feel so much more ready to face the challenges of entrepreneurship after this retreat"
- Dina Burkitbayeva, Freedom Biosciences
"Sitting here wearing my new Village Global t-shirt and flying high from the experience of the last three days. You absolutely knocked my socks off with the Villagers Retreat as it was the most impressive experience like this I have ever had."
- Ben Wiederholt, Junction Health

- Tanuj Thapliyal, Co-Founder & CEO, Spot AI

Your focus on knowledge sharing, encouraging other people to prepare in advance, the intimate nature of the venue, how you (Ben) led the group through the mindquakes — it was truly a masterclass in holding this type of event.”
- Ryan Caldbeck, Co-Founder & Former CEO, CircleUp
