The best product means nothing if nobody knows it exists. Come learn how to turn an X.com presence into community and pipeline with Adam W. (co-founder & CTO of Orchid) and Toki Hossain (founder, Vancouver.dev). Adam's launch video for Orchid (YC '25), a messaging-based personal assistant, hit 23M+ views on X. Toki's spent years building Vancouver's dev and founder community and was named one of BetaKit's Most Ambitious. Althra and nwPlus will be hosting a fireside chat with them next Thursday evening in our downtown office. We'll cover: → Choosing the right platform for your goals → Finding ideas worth writing about → Building trust through consistent content → Turning attention into relationships and business If you're building something awesome and wondering how to get it in front of the right people, this one's for you.
