The Turing Fest Founder Dinners are coming to Dublin. 🎉

Ten founders. One table. One honest conversation.

On 18 March in Dublin, we’re hosting the next Turing Fest Founder Dinner of 2026, in partnership with RBC Brewin Dolphin.

These evenings are designed for founders of product startups who want something simple but increasingly rare: time with peers who truly understand the journey - alongside good food, great company, and open conversation with people building companies of their own.

Together with our friends at Baseline, we’ll bring together a small group of founders to share experiences, compare notes, and connect with others navigating the same path.

Dinner is on RBC Brewin Dolphin.

Seats are limited and applications are now open. We’ll review submissions as they come in and hand-pick the group.
If you’re a founder building something meaningful and would value being in the room - apply now. Link in comments 👇👇

Founders spend years building companies.
Very few spend the same time thinking about what happens to the value they create.

That’s why we’re pleased to be partnering with RBC Brewin Dolphin for a new series of Founder Dinners and socials in 2026. 🎉

RBC Brewin Dolphin has been helping people plan and shape their financial futures since 1762 - bringing a long-term perspective to protecting, growing and managing wealth. It’s a relationships business built on trust, experience and thoughtful advice.

That is important. Because the founder journey is rarely travelled alone.

The most valuable insights often come from peers - the people building alongside you, facing similar decisions and pressures.

So throughout 2026, we’ll be bringing together small groups of founders in London, Dublin, Berlin, and Edinburgh.
Ten founders. One table. One real conversation.

For thoughtful discussion, good food and the kind of honest exchange that happens when the room is right.
These dinners are application-only, designed for founders building product companies who want to connect with peers navigating the same journey.

We’re grateful to RBC Brewin Dolphin for supporting these dinners, so that we can create spaces where founders can connect meaningfully with peers. 👏👏👏

More details on dates and applications coming very soon.

If you’re an early-stage builder, you already know the pressure doesn’t ease up.
The questions just get sharper.

Are we working on the right thing? Is this traction real?

On 6–7 May in Edinburgh, ~200 founders and 100 actively deploying UK & European investors will be in the same room.

Roundtables. Deep dives. Case studies. 1:1s in the Deal Room.

The kind of discussions where you can pressure-test your thinking with people who understand the stage you’re at.
The next 12 months of your company will be shaped, by the decisions you make (and the people who help you make them)

First Release tickets end today at 5pm.

£449 for founders.
£599 for investors.
If you’ve been meaning to apply - this is your moment. Our team is all hands on deck processing applications before the deadline. We’re locked in, will you?

Momentum compounds when ambition meets clarity.
Few companies understand that better than Skyscanner.
Built in Scotland.
Scaled globally.

Relentlessly focused on helping travellers explore the world effortlessly - with a vision to become the world’s number one travel ally.

That kind of journey matters.

On 6–7 May in Edinburgh, ~200 founders and 100 actively deploying investors will gather at Turing Fest - focused on early stage companies.

In practice, that means:
✔️ Founders building with global ambition
✔️ Investors calibrating conviction across markets
✔️ Conversations grounded in real operating experience
✔️ A curated room designed for trust and long-term relationships

For founders building from Scotland to the world - and investors backing them - partnering with Skyscanner reinforces what’s possible when vision and ex*****on align. 🎯🎯

⏰ Three days to go!

If you’re an Early Stage builder, you already know the pressure doesn’t ease up. The questions just get sharper.

Are we working on the right thing?
Is this traction real?
Who should actually be on our cap table?

On 6–7 May in Edinburgh, ~200 founders and 100 actively deploying UK & European investors will be in the same room.

Not for surface-level networking - but for proper conversations.
Roundtables. Deep dives. Case studies. 1:1s in the Deal Room. The kind of discussions where you can pressure-test your thinking with people who understand the stage you’re at.

The next 24 months of your company won’t only be shaped by content but by decisions - and the people you make them with.

First Release tickets close March 6th.
🎟 £449 for Founders. £599 for Investors.
