What you likely need
You're integrating a landmark merger while defending enterprise territory against Salesforce and racing to own the AI data infrastructure narrative — so the highest-value Festival moments are ones that sharpen your combined-entity story, surface VP-caliber talent, and put you in rooms where enterprise AI procurement decisions get made. Roundtables with other unicorn CEOs navigating post-merger GTM and dinners with data engineering community leaders will do more for you right now than broad networking. Your technical credibility and pricing transparency story are rare weapons; events that let you deploy both in front of the right audience are where Festival adds the most leverage.

- positioningA closed-door roundtable with 6-8 unicorn CEOs who have navigated post-merger GTM integration (think Hashicorp, Confluent, Databricks alumni) to pressure-test the unified Fivetran–dbt Labs narrative and cross-sell motion before it goes public
- positioningA dinner with CDOs and AI infrastructure buyers from Fortune 500 companies actively building agentic AI stacks, anchored around Fivetran's OpenAI partnership as proof that $300M+ ARR data pipelines are the trust layer enterprise AI agents actually run on
- tacticalA tactical working session with 4-5 founders and GTM leaders who have successfully run 'open alternative' campaigns against walled-garden vendors (Salesforce, ServiceNow) to turn Fivetran's Pay-to-Connect counter-positioning into a formal, repeatable GTM playbook
- hiringA YC W13 and neighboring-batch founder dinner focused on trading warm referrals to proven VP-level operators — revenue, engineering, and product — who have scaled combined entities through 1,000–2,000-employee inflection points
- positioningA dinner with the core maintainers and power contributors behind high-profile open-source data tooling projects (dbt Core, Apache Iceberg, DuckDB) to identify where Fivetran's sponsorship or George's direct GitHub contributions would land with the highest signal in the data engineering community
- positioningA roundtable with TechCrunch editors and fellow enterprise infrastructure CEOs publishing on AI data readiness to coordinate a higher-cadence byline strategy and establish George as the definitive voice on AI-ready data infrastructure ahead of the next wave of enterprise procurement cycles
- tacticalA happy hour with CMOs and heads of growth from developer-led B2B companies who have successfully amplified organic customer love around pricing transparency — to help Fivetran turn its proactive price-lowering story into a formal campaign that hits hardest against Salesforce's Pay-to-Connect narrative
- hiringAn intimate office hours session with 3-4 executive recruiters and CEOs who have built VP-level leadership benches across merged entities at scale, focused specifically on the Fivetran–dbt combined org's most critical open roles in a 1,345-person, 30%-growth environment
