What is the Apex Circle?
A membership for ambitious founders who want to expand their network through monthly adrenaline activities instead of boring networking events.
Each month, you get matched with 5-6 new founders for an activity like indoor skydiving, ice karting, or rock climbing. No pitching, no business cards—just real connection through shared experiences.
After 6 months: 30+ founders in your network. Zero conference badges collected.
How does the matching process work?
We combine data with human insight. When you apply, we review your location, interests, industry, business stage, and personal details to create matches with real chemistry. The longer you're in the Apex Circle, the better we get at it. Your feedback after each experience refines future matches, making every squad feel less random and more intentional.
What types of experiences are Apex experiences?
Anything that gets your adrenaline going and checks off your bucket list. We're talking indoor skydiving, rock climbing, white water rafting, helicopter tours, exotic car racing, diving, hiking challenging peaks, experiences that push you slightly outside your comfort zone.
The idea is simple: when you're doing something that excites you, your guards come down naturally. Real conversation happens and real connections form.
Your squad chooses what you want to do together. We just make sure you're matched with founders who are excited about the same kinds of adventures.
How often am I matched?
You're matched monthly with a new squad or experience opportunity. Each month, based on your feedback and evolving preferences, we create new matches or opportunities for your squad to do something together.
The key is consistency: monthly touchpoints keep your connections active and growing. The longer you're in Apex Circle, the smarter those matches become.
What if I travel often?
Travel shouldn't disconnect you from your circle. Update your city before the 1st, get matched with founders wherever you are. That's it. Built for founders who move.
What if my city doesn’t have members yet?
We're expanding constantly, so some cities are still building their community. If you're in a city without members yet, we can match you with the nearest active hub or prioritize you for your city when it launches. You won't miss out.
What if it's not for me after trying it out?
We're confident you'll find your people, but if you don't after 3 months, we'll refund you completely. We'd rather you find what actually serves you than stay out of obligation.
What happens if I refer a friend?
When you refer a friend to the Apex Circle, you both get rewarded.
Once your friend joins and becomes an active member, you’ll each receive one free month to enjoy your next Apex experience on us.There’s no limit, the more friends you bring, the more free months you earn.
