1. Fundraise Faster With Direct Access to Global Investors

Skip the cold outreach and endless intro-hunting. Spend a week with investors who are actively looking for companies to back.

You’ll meet:

• General Partners

• LPs and family offices

• Angels

• Corporate venture teams

• Accelerators and ecosystem leaders

These aren’t pitch sessions or formal roundtables - you’ll be sitting next to them for hours as you travel together, creating genuine relationships.

2. Get Your Startup on the Radar

Relationships first, business second. Investors remember the founders they travel with. 42Geeks places you in the room - and on the bus, at dinner, and in briefings - with the people who write checks.
If you’re raising now or within the next 12 months, this is the fastest way to build global visibility.

3. Learn From Experienced Operators & Founders

Each city features sessions with successful local founders, seasoned operators, and builders who’ve scaled in challenging markets - plus insights from the Geeks traveling with you. You’ll gain practical knowledge on expansion into emerging markets.

4. Build a Global Founder Network

You’ll travel alongside and meet founders from Silicon Valley, MENA, Africa, LATAM, and beyond.
These peers often become:

• Co-founders

• Advisors

• Beta testers

• Cross-border partners

• Lifelong friends

Shared travel creates bonds that last far beyond the tour.

5. Understand New Markets & Customer Segments

Whether you’re exploring global expansion or simply gathering insight, you’ll gain real-world understanding of:

• Regulatory environments

• Customer behavior

• Competitive landscapes

• Distribution channels

• Partnership opportunities

• Talent pools

This is the type of intel that shapes product strategy and influences growth decisions.
