Principled Business
Connect
Your network, in one room.
Join founders, investors, hiring companies, and PB members in the same space.
About the Event
What is PB Connect?
Principled Business Connect is a virtual event where hiring companies, founders, investors, executives, and job seekers — all part of the Principled Business network — are in the same space at the same time. It's a room built for people who believe how you build matters as much as what you build.
Powered by Gatherly, the platform lets you move freely through a virtual venue just like you would at an in-person event. Walk between floors, drop into conversations, visit booths, and connect directly with the people you want to meet — no waiting rooms, no scheduled slots, no webinar format.
The Platform
What is Gatherly — and how does it work?
Gatherly is the platform that powers Principled Business Connect. Here's what that means for you:

Navigate a virtual venue
Move your avatar through a real floor plan. Walk between rooms just like an in-person event.
Start conversations naturally
Walk up to someone and video chat opens automatically — no scheduling, no waiting rooms.
Every floor has a purpose
Talent Hub, Venture Floor, Community Lounge, Main Stage — each space is built for a specific kind of connection.
Move your avatar freely between spaces — conversations start when you walk up to someone.
The Space
What's in the room
Talent Hub
10+ hiring companies with booths. Direct conversations with hiring managers — no application portal, no waiting.

A dedicated space for founders, investors, and executives. Partnerships, deal flow, and co-founder conversations happen here.
Community Floor

Mastermind Session — LIVE
One of our most valued member experiences, now open to all Connect attendees. Each week, our members gather with Alexander McCobin and special guests to share what they're working on, workshop real challenges, and support each other as business and liberty leaders. At Principled Business Connect, we're bringing this session live — short, interactive, and built for honest conversation. Show up, share what you're building, and leave with perspective you didn't have before.
