Atlanta Tech Village

“Pay it forward” is one of our four core values, not because it sounds good on a wall. the world.

Because gatekeeping might help one person get ahead, but it doesn’t change a city. It definitely doesn’t change the world.

Around the Village, that can look like founders meeting over lunch at Startup Chowdown and sharing what they’ve learned, or builders opening up their process at Wednesd.Al so other founders don’t have to figure everything out alone.

And last week, we took that belief a step further with the launch of the Atlanta Tech Village Foundation.

Because if we really believe access changes outcomes, then we have to keep creating more ways for founders to get the support, knowledge, relationships, and opportunities they need to keep going.

That’s the kind of city we want to help build. One where people don’t hoard what they know. They pass it on.

So, founders: who’s one person in Atlanta who helped you when they didn’t have to?

Tag them below. Let’s give them their flowers!

Founders make money decisions every day.

Some are obvious.

Others are buried in ad spend, pricing, margins, and the systems moving money through the business.

Next week, we’re hosting two practical workshops designed to help you make those decisions with a little more clarity.

Founders rarely run into just one kind of problem at a time.

One week it’s, “People are signing up, so why aren’t they converting?”

The next it’s, “We’re making money now. Are we actually handling it the right way?”

Next week at Atlanta Tech Village, we’re tackling both.

On Tuesday, Anastasia Kudrow is leading a workshop on diagnosing why signups aren’t turning into conversions and helping founders understand where the real friction might be.

On Wednesday, Michelle Handley is breaking down what startups should have in place financially from the beginning, including when it makes sense to bring in a CPA and how to avoid expensive cleanup later.

Two different problems. Two practical workshops. One goal: helping founders spend less time guessing and more time building.

Join us for one or both next week at ATV. Click the link in bio to RSVP.

You choose an office on the big stuff.

Price. Square feet. Term length.

Then you live in it on the small stuff. Where you eat. Where you take the call that changes the trajectory of your business. What you see when you finally look up from the laptop.

Nobody tours a space for the small stuff.
Everybody remembers it.

ATV South Broad suites were built with both in mind.

The numbers matter. So does everything around them.

Some come to South Downtown • ATL and see what the floor plan can’t show you.

AI is moving fast. You don’t have to know everything about it to start using it.

Wednesd.AI gives you 30 minutes to learn, then time to apply what you just learned to the work you’re actually doing.

Ask questions. Test things out. Learn from the people around you. Get some work done while you’re at it.

Join us this Wednesday at 8:30 AM.

Come curious. Leave caffeinated and having learned a new skill, start to finish.

RSVP for free at the link in bio.

Spend tomorrow with us. Two rooms, one building, no reason to leave in between.

First up, Wednesd.AI: Your Weekly Download.

Most companies start by asking which AI tool to buy. Jamie Walsh thinks that’s the wrong first question. He’s CEO of Keystone Intelligence and a former public company CFO, and he’s walking through how to tell whether your business is actually ready for AI, plus six things you can do about it now.

For founders and operators rather than engineers.
· Doors and coffee 8:30
· Jamie at 9
· Free and open to the public

Then cowork with us until noon.

At noon, head into Women + Tech, an interactive workshop with Holly Goddard on polarity management. Some things are problems you solve. Some are tensions you manage. Knowing which one you’re looking at changes how you decide.
12:00 to 1:30.

Both at ATV Buckhead. RSVP at the link in bio.
