About us
Entrepreneurship permeates the culture of Silicon Valley - the innovation capital of the world.
The advent of the Digital Age has democratized innovation and entrepreneurship.
Never before has it been more possible for anyone from anywhere, with a great idea and a burning desire to succeed, to make it big, and in the process, change the world in a relatively short period of time.
HP, Intel, Apple, Microsoft, Cisco, Oracle, Yahoo, eBay, Amazon, Google, Facebook and many, many, many other iconic companies all started with just an idea. Taking a startup from idea to IPO has taken on mythical proportions in Silicon Valley and beyond. Many dream the dream, with hopes of launching the "next big thing".
We are a community of entrepreneurs, technologists, engineers, venture capitalists, angel investors, educators, financial professionals, corporate executives, attorneys, academics, bloggers, writers, content creators, and social activists.
Our mission is to provide entrepreneurs with the knowledge, guidance, tools, and connections they need to succeed. Our goal is to build a strong, vibrant, collaborative entrepreneurial community with deep, lasting business and social relationships from Silicon Valley to Ireland and beyond.

2026 is now in full swing and the job market has been a mixed bag. Returning inflation, AI-based layoffs, global uncertainty, and declining consumer confidence—amid sky-high demand for AI-centric roles—are dominating the job market. As we get into the second half, where do things stand?
We'll discuss:- Our predictions for 2026 and how they look so far
- Which industries are hot and which are not
- Where AI is affecting the job search, and where they aren't
- Tactics that still matter in an uncertain market
- Upcoming Albert's List events you can attend to help your job search
- And much more!
Whether you are employed and looking for a new role, or out of work and looking, this webinar will have resources and ideas you can use to create a meaningful job hunt for the rest of the year.

"I've applied to 80 jobs. I've heard back from one."
You've heard this from your smartest friends. From former top performers. Maybe from yourself. The market changed — AI rewrote the rules, recruiters are overwhelmed, and job seekers are exhausted. If that's you, the problem isn't effort. It's that effort without a strategy just produces more applications, not more offers.
In this session, you'll see the difference between doing more and doing the right things — and walk away with a concrete next step, not another list of tips to sit on.
What you'll learn:- The #1 mistake that makes even qualified candidates invisible to recruiters
- How to build a target market instead of applying to anything remotely related to your background
- Why "networking" usually fails — and what a useful conversation actually looks like
- The shift from application volume to strategic execution, and how to make it stick past week one
This is for you if:
- You've been laid off, ghosted, or stuck without knowing why
- You're changing careers and don't know where to start
- You're tired of activity that doesn't turn into conversations
From there, two paths, not two products with a winner. Work through your strategy independently with The Playbook. Or get live coaching and a cohort in 6 Weeks to Hired: The Fall 2026 Job Search Bootcamp — Playbook included for the program, plus two months free after it ends.
Either way, you leave with a plan, not a longer to-do list.2 attendeesHow to Turn Job Search Chaos into a Strategy That Works

You're either looking at a company to join, or you're trying to understand what your competitors are doing. Either way, you're researching blind—reading scattered reviews, googling company news, checking LinkedIn. It takes forever and you miss things.
Stop doing this manually.
In this workshop, you'll customize and deploy a working AI research agent in 3 hours. Fork an existing competitive intelligence agent, wire in your own data sources (RSS feeds, APIs, whatever's available), and run it. Feed it a company or industry keyword. Get back structured intelligence: recent news, hiring patterns, market positioning, gaps, red flags.
What you'll actually do:- Clone a working competitive intelligence agent from GitHub
- Add your own custom data sources (RSS feeds, open APIs, etc.)
- Test it live on a real company or competitor
- Walk away with a deployed agent you can run 100+ times
Two use cases, one agent:
- Job Seeker Mode — Research a company before you apply, interview, or accept an offer. Understand growth, hiring, leadership, red flags.
- Competitive Mode — Understand what competitors are doing, market gaps, hiring trends, strategic moves. For employees and side hustlers.
What you need before the workshop:
- 10 min of pre-work (optional, but recommended): Clone the GitHub repo, set up your API key, test it runs
- A laptop with a browser (Claude.ai)
- Basic comfort with Claude—you should already be asking it questions and iterating
After the workshop:
- Post-work recap doc: What you built, how to iterate, advanced techniques, troubleshooting
- Optional upsell: Advanced agent techniques course (separate paid offering)
This is NOT:
- A tutorial on "how to use AI"
- A guide to corporate strategy
- A tool for stalking or privacy violations (we cover ethical guardrails)
Price: $17–27 (one-time, includes materials + post-work doc)
Pre-work is optional. If you complete it, you'll hit the ground running. If you skip it, no problem—we'll set up during the first 20 minutes.3 attendees
