Accelerator · San Francisco
About
Solo Founders is an accelerator based in San Francisco. The organization is establishing its initial presence by connecting entrepreneurs through active, in-person community programming. Operating directly within the San Francisco and broader Bay Area startup ecosystem, it focuses on bringing together individuals building companies independently or in early stages.
What they run
The group's calendar features three upcoming gatherings focused on athletic and social formats, including two mixers and one meetup. Its core recurring programming is the Builders who Run SF — 5K series, with editions scheduled in San Francisco for November 14 and December 12, 2026. They also host the Builders who Run — Golden Gate Bridge 4M mixer on December 5, 2026.
Who attends
Participants primarily include solo entrepreneurs, technical creators, and startup builders based in San Francisco and the wider Bay Area. The running meetups and casual mixers attract individuals who want to combine physical fitness with informal professional networking, offering a low-pressure environment for founders to exchange experiences and connect outside traditional office settings.
