A selective coordination layer for AI-native founders, operators, investors, and partners. Poland and CEE connected to global capital, partnership, and deployment.
According to Prosus and Dealroom's State of AI in Europe (March 2026), Europe matches the US in AI talent density and startup creation — and leads the world in LLM adoption. Yet it repeatedly loses at breakout stage.
Europe matches the United States in AI talent density and in annual AI startup creation — but most lead investors in large European AI rounds are American.
Europe leads the world in LLM adoption. The problem is not capability. It is coordinative: selective visibility, trusted access, and practical path-making toward scale.
"Europe does not mainly lose at origination. It loses at retention: of capital, ownership, distribution, and breakout-stage control."
Warsaw Founders — White Paper v2.0, March 2026Warsaw Founders is designed to improve direction quality, surface signal early, create trusted access, and translate insight into action. Optimised for density, usefulness, and movement — not volume.
Ten right people in a room beat a hundred wrong ones. Warsaw Founders is application-based — every intake is reviewed for active building, not credentials.
Each format is engineered around a specific function — not around producing content, building audiences, or generating event photos.
Closed. 10–20 founders. Structured conversation around one high-stakes decision or inflection point. Facilitator-led. Output: a one-page signal note shared with participants — patterns aggregated and anonymised for community intelligence.
Operators only. What is actually working in AI-native operations. No pitching. No panels. No presentations. Tactical notes and workflow patterns as output.
Bilateral. Warsaw Founders with strategic partners — Alibaba Cloud, Google Campus Warsaw, and others. Specific opportunity discussion, not generic sponsorship.
Open. Market maps, readiness tools, investor-fit checks, validation notes, deployment pathways. Created by the community. Shared publicly.
The first physical event is the proof of concept. Everything before is preparation for that room. Quality gate is non-negotiable.
Warsaw Founders is a standalone project. Adjacent portfolio entities provide additional context for partners seeking the broader ecosystem view.
Partner conversations currently active: Brian A. Wong (former VP Alibaba Group, author of The Tao of Alibaba) — advisor, East-West bridge. Gary Topp, Alibaba Cloud Europe — CEE distribution of AI Catalyst Program ($120K in credits for startups). Google Campus Warsaw — co-branded event, Q4 2026.
Whether you're building something and want to be in the room, exploring partnership, or looking for context on what Warsaw Founders is — reach out directly.
Warsaw Founders does not use open registration. All intake is reviewed. Quality is the only filter.
