What you likely need
You need events that sharpen your founder identity around LoanBlocks and get you in front of the right fintech credit-infra investors and operators. The highest-leverage gatherings for you are intimate dinners with CLO managers and alt credit PMs who are your exact ICP, plus targeted fundraising sessions with Bain Capital Ventures, Citi Ventures, and Canapi partners. Rounding that out with a technical founder cohort and an engineering hiring night will help you staff up and build the public credibility your Berkeley background deserves.
