Founder War Room Sessions
When founders hit walls, the War Room can break them down. In around 60–90 minutes, 4–5 handpicked members dive into one person’s toughest challenge. One takes the hot seat, the others bring battle-tested perspectives. Fast. Candid. No fluff.

A War Room is hyper focused collective problem solving. It helps cut through complex problems that otherwise could take weeks to think through.
Solve complex problems ~1-2 hours.
Reframe challenges and expose blind spots.
Support and be supported by peers who've been around the block.
Walk away with clarity and actionable insights.
Often complex, emotionally challenging, and indeterminate.
Often a lot of moving parts involving risk assessments, tensions, incentives and more.
Quit or not? Sell or not? Join or not? All personal and complex to navigate.
Often a question of personal goals, vision, interpersonal relations and more. They can make or break startups in a matter of days.
“Startups move fast. Problems stack faster. In the War Room, you unlock clarity without losing time.”

We got together several people from Catalyst to discuss a complex situation between founders of a prominent crypto project. Due to the sensitive nature of this session, we cannot share more details.
Negotiations surround a cap table can be notoriously complex. It's often an equation that involves vision, personal incentives, to those of investors, state of the business, market dynamics and much more. We supported the founder of a deep tech startup with a time sensitive challenge.
