Our mission is to bring together ambitious people who are building world-class products and businesses. I believe we’ve created a truly practical community that helps hundreds of teams with real action — and saves them serious money on consultants and service providers.
I wanted to build a community for myself — one that's exclusively about global business, with no noise or sales pitches in the chats, with carefully designed structure and moderation, and a focus on substantive, independent content from real teams — the kind you simply can't find in the open.
Building a B2B product and need to scale sales, integrate AI into your team’s processes, or figure out where to take the product next?
We dig into everything: from cold outreach and partnership channels to AI-powered process automation, building a content engine, and adopting Claude/Cursor across the team. Real case studies on entering the US, EU, and MENA — what a lead actually costs, how to close Enterprise deals, and what works on LinkedIn.

FAQ
We're not an info-business and we don't offer one-size-fits-all advice. R-Founders is real, lived practice from people who are building businesses right now. We group members by industry and stage, extract the real substance from experience and conversations, and create an environment where founders share openly with each other. No fluff, no filler — just experience and connections you can't find anywhere else.
R-Founders is for you if you're a founder, co-founder, or C-level executive (CEO, CMO, CPO, CTO, Head of Growth) at a company that operates — or plans to operate — internationally. The key is having a working product or business and a willingness to share your experience with other members.
After submitting your application on the website, a scout will reach out for a brief intro call. We want to make sure the group will be valuable for you — and that your experience will be valuable for other members. It's not an exam. It's a conversation about your goals and expectations.
Not at all. For founders at the exploration or launch stage, and for solo entrepreneurs, we have the Associate plan. It gives you access to a network of 1,400+ founders, sessions across all tracks, and masterminds — so you can find your direction, meet a potential co-founder, or learn from those who've already gone from 0 to 1.
Yes, R-Founders is a paid membership. Pricing depends on your track and participation format. A scout will share the details after learning more about your project.
All sessions are recorded, and you'll have access to recordings and notes. But we recommend attending at least 50–60% of sessions live — the best stuff happens in real-time discussions.
Yes! Your subscription includes up to 3 people from one company — the founder plus 2 key team members (co-founder, C-level, Head of). Additional seats are available for an extra fee.
