The Powderkeg community is one of the most valuable tools in my toolkit as a leader. Having a Peer Group where I feel safe and supported allows me to grow as a person and a leader. I wouldn't trade it for the world.

Matt Tait
CEO at Decimal
Powderkeg is the reason that I have started rethinking my professional life and made me realize that by taking a time-out and helping others, I can gain more energy and reflect on my own direction in a way that's helped me be more successful as a father, husband and founder/executive.

Being a part of the Powderkeg community has had a huge impact on both my personal and professional life. The connections I've made - from fellow cohort members to the folks I meet at an event - are genuine and based around a true sense of collaboration. It's refreshing to be a part of an organization that lives up to its promise of creating opportunities.

Powderkeg has increased my sales and leveled up my strategy! Matt and the team has made a very clear effort to make multiple quality connections that resulted in repeat sales! Further, going to the events has been huge. Matt's ability to attract and curate a group of high quality business owners and leaders is so helpful. It saves me so much time, when I can just show up and everyone I meet is a great contact.

You’re in the right room if...

scaling
You’re scaling a $1M–$100M+ tech company
surface
You’re done with surface-level "networking"
legacy
You want to grow your company and your legacy
people
You believe in the power of people, place, and principle

Growth doesn’t 
happen alone.

You’re one connection away from collapsing a year’s worth of growth into a few conversations. Don’t spend another 12 months guessing.
