What members say
"Before United Founders, I was carrying the weight of a business sale largely on my own. United Founders changed that completely, and it played a genuine part in me landing a successful exit for my business. If you're a founder considering joining, stop considering."

It can be lonely at the top
As a leader, your decisions affect employees, customers, investors and family. Yet despite being surrounded by people, it can often feel like nobody truly understands the weight of those decisions. Your partner, co-founder, leadership team and investors each see the business through a different lens.
United Founders was created by entrepreneurs who know this firsthand. The most valuable lessons don't come from books or podcasts; they come from honest conversations with people who've faced the same challenges.
So we built a carefully curated community of founders and leaders who believe in helping one another succeed, where knowledge is shared openly and the people around you understand the journey.
The most common thing we hear from new members:
"I didn't realise it included all this." So here's all of it.
Something in the calendar every week
Founder dinners, industry nights, meet-ups, workshops, online trainings, coffee mornings and site visits, averaging one event a week, filterable by type and industry. Real rooms and real conversations, with no name tags and no pitches.
Every event is built to teach first and connect second, and because the community is curated, every room puts you among founders and leaders worth knowing.
Introduced to everyone, then to exactly the right five
First we introduce you to the whole community: a formal welcome that puts your name, face and business in front of 500+ members.
Then, on your onboarding call, you tell us who you need to meet, and annual members get up to five personal introductions in their first month. No cold outreach; we do the awkward part.
After that there's the directory: every member, searchable by industry, with what they've built and how to reach them. Direct 1-on-1 selling to members is against our rules, so a message gets you advice, not a pitch.
Ask anything. Answered in hours.
From best hiring practices to tax to landlords. Post the question you can't ask anywhere else and get answers in hours from 500+ vetted founders across 25+ industries who've been through it.
No pitching, no selling, no noise. A community that gives first, moderated to stay that way, with 13 sub-groups from industry circles to special interests. And with 10,000+ past discussions searchable, the answer is often waiting before you ask.
Experts, perks and playbooks on tap
- Experts on call. Resident Experts across legal, tax, visas, hiring, marketing, tech & more with up to an hour of free consulting each, 30+ hours of qualified advice on tap.
- US$55k+ in perks and discounts. Member-to-member deals and partner perks that routinely cover the cost of membership several times over.
- 65+ hours of expert recordings. Monthly live trainings plus a compounding library from category experts: selling your business, fundraising, pricing, tax and more.
One culture, enforced.
Membership comes with a shared standard, and it's the reason this community feels unlike any other you've joined. Every member signs up to our eighteen Community Guidelines on joining.
We hold one another to them, and we enforce them when we have to. That's why there's no posturing in the room, and why people ask here what they'd never ask anywhere else. The four that matter most:
We help each other succeed. Asking for help here is a strength, not a weakness.
You'll meet founders who've sold companies, public figures, the odd Olympian. None of it matters in the room. If you're a builder, you belong.
Teach before you pitch. Direct 1-on-1 selling to members isn't allowed, and the member directory is not a leads list.
Substance, context, and evidence over opinions. No soapboxes, no politics, no clickbait.

FAQ
What's the joining criteria?
Membership is exclusively for the founder or leader of a revenue-generating business who resides in Bali. The business itself does not have to be here, you just have to be. Ex-founders may apply as advisors or Resident Experts. And sorry, but for now no VC or PE professionals, and no aspiring founders without a running business.
Our members run companies with annual revenues ranging from US$100K to US$100M+. We review every application personally and run two layers of due diligence, because the filter is what makes the room work.
How much does it cost?
Community membership is IDR 1M/month, cancel anytime, or IDR 8M/year (~US$440), saving IDR 4M.
Monthly membership is credit card only; annual membership can be paid by credit card or bank transfer. Membership renews automatically until cancelled.
Annual membership also includes full membership for your co-founder. Just send us their name, WhatsApp number and email after signing up.
What if I want more support?
For founders looking for more structured support, Peer Groups offer a confidential group of six founders matched by stage, ambition and revenue, meeting every six weeks to work through challenges, decisions and opportunities together.

Do you offer discounts to charities?
While we do not offer discounts, we do give free annual memberships to 'local legends': founders whose endeavours have already made a significant contribution to Indonesia.
If you believe you qualify, apply in the normal way and mention on your application that you would like to be considered as a local legend.
