What you likely need
You're at the stage where Whatnot's next inflection points — IPO readiness, international scaling, and org design past 1,000 people — require peer input from founders who've navigated the same transitions, not just advisors. The highest-value Festival events for you are small, closed-door dinners and roundtables with late-stage marketplace CTOs, public-market-ready founders, and the bankers and secondary specialists who've seen these deals up close. You'll get the most out of sessions where you can speak candidly about engineering org design, liquidity strategy, and what it actually takes to build a public-company-grade infrastructure before the window opens.
