What you likely need
You're a late-stage CTO on the edge of a major liquidity event, so the highest-value Festival moments are rooms where IPO-track founders and investment bankers are speaking candidly about timing and process. You also benefit from gatherings that sharpen your personal brand as an engineering leader independent of Checkr, and from YC network activations that open angel deal flow and enterprise partnership channels.
