Membership

Community is a moat. Build yours.

The best founders don't network harder — they network in the right room. WYB membership puts you inside Hong Kong's largest, most active founder community: 500+ vetted builders, hackers, and hipsters who trade intros, capital, and hard-won advice like it's currency. Because it is.

Who It's For

Three kinds of people build every great startup scene.

Hustlers

Learn & Access

Early-stage founders and first-time builders who need the playbook, the room, and the warm intro — not another how-to article.

Hackers

Invest & Connect

Operators, engineers, and investors looking to deploy capital, find their next co-founder, or back the next HK breakout.

Hipsters

Synthesize

Creatives, designers, and storytellers who shape culture and translate what builders make into what the market feels.

Perks & Benefits

Why founders actually stay members.

A room that's actually curated

Every member is vetted. No tourists, no pitch-slap spam — just founders, operators, and investors who showed up to build.

Warm intros on demand

Need a lawyer, a lead investor, or your first enterprise customer? Ask in the WhatsApp group and get a real answer within hours, not weeks.

First access, always

Member events fill up before they're ever posted publicly. Flagship nights, pitch clubs, and workshops — you're in before anyone else hears about it.

Mentorship that isn't transactional

Tap founders who've exited, scaled, and raised — inside a community built on paying it forward, not billing by the hour.

Partner perks that add up

Discounted credits and tools from our community partners (cloud, legal, IP, coworking) — real savings on the stuff that eats your runway.

A seat at the table, literally

Small-format dinners and closed-door mixers where the real conversations — and deals — happen.

The WYB WhatsApp

This is where the community actually lives.

Not another Slack that goes quiet after week two. Our WhatsApp group is the daily pulse of WYB — job leads, investor intros, event drops, and founders asking (and answering) the questions that actually matter.
