Welcome to F.I.E.S.T.A. Founders, Investors, Entrepreneurs, Startups, Techies, and Adventures. FIESTA is the heart of Round Rock’s startup community.
Built by founders, for founders, we exist to help founders be seen, connected, resourced, and celebrated. We're not just a Meetup! Join us to see why. Whether you are building, investing, advising, exploring, or simply curious, you belong here.
What FIESTA Is About and Does:
Connection - Round Rock is growing fast, and it can be hard to find your people. FIESTA is a monthly gathering where founders and supporters come together to share ideas, make introductions, and build real relationships over time.
Resources - Many startups struggle not because of a lack of effort, but because of limited access. FIESTA helps bridge that gap by connecting founders to tools, insight, and people who can help move things forward.
A Welcoming Culture - Everyone is welcome here. Background, title, and stage do not matter. What matters is showing up with curiosity, respect, and a willingness to support one another. Meet the Funders: 1-3 VCs, angels, and funders; reverse-pitch their funds. Helping Founders Be Seen by giving them the opportunity to pitch to 100+ attendees and then highlighting them in The FIESTA Focus newsletter, which reaches over 9,000 subscribers. The goal is simple. Help founders build awareness, attract customers, and make meaningful connections. If you are a venture-backed, scalable founder who has attended FIESTA, you are invited to pitch every 6 months.
Celebrating Wins - Entrepreneurship is hard. Progress deserves to be acknowledged. Both big milestones and small wins matter here. When you share your success, you give others hope and momentum. Share your Wins as we enjoy celebrating you.
