A house where founders come to build — together.
Entrepreneurs House is a residence, an incubator, and a gathering place: a home for operators, event planners, and guests, and a stage for the meals, conversations, and community events that turn strangers into collaborators.
“Entrepreneurs House exists to connect, empower, and elevate founders, technologists, creatives, and community leaders — through mentorship, entrepreneurship, wellness, and economic opportunity.”
We’re building a centralized hub where community members learn, build meaningful relationships, launch businesses, discover opportunity, access resources, and contribute their talents to strengthen the LGBTQIA+ ecosystem in Austin and beyond. Not a co-working desk. Not a one-off event space. A home base.
Style direction, not the actual property — we’re picturing this kind of light, openness, and flow.
An inspirational residence — not just a venue.
A large, welcoming home designed to host founder and entrepreneur events — and to be genuinely lived in. Operators, event planners, and rotating guests share the upstairs; the ground floor stays open for whatever the community needs that week. Think big glass and easy indoor-outdoor flow, a kitchen built for a crowd, and enough backyard for the whole community to gather — a contemporary Austin home that feels like an event and a residence at once.
Live-in operators keep the house running, hosted, and warm — never a sterile rental.
Event planners in residence turn the calendar around fast, from an intimate dinner to a full community gathering.
Guest stays for visiting founders, speakers, and collaborators passing through Austin.
Where Silver Sharps incubates — in public, with company.
We’re building our own brands, ideas, partnerships, and communities inside this house, alongside the founders who live and gather here. The house is both our workshop and our welcome mat.
Incubation
Silver Sharps' own brands, ideas, and partner ventures get built and tested right alongside the founders in residence.
Meals & Conversation
Family-style dinners, brunches, and lunch-and-learns designed to turn strangers into collaborators.
Co-Working
Daytime desks and working sessions in the common spaces — quiet enough to focus, open enough to meet your next collaborator.
Community Events
Evenings and weekends turn over to founder dinners, investor conversations, and open community gatherings.
Like any home, this one will be built on what happens inside it.
Great breakfasts and dinners that run long. Conversations that quietly change a persons or company’s direction. This is the quilted texture we’re building toward.

Community Sharing
Learning From ExpertsA front door for founders who are just getting started.
Alongside the events and residency, the house connects newcomers to the Chamber and the broader on-ramps they need — so nobody has to figure Austin’s ecosystem out alone.
Chamber Connections
Warm introductions and programming ties with the local Chamber of Commerce and allied business networks.
Founder On-Ramp
Practical guidance on registration, licensing, and the first few steps every new founder in the community asks about.
Resource Library
A living, growing list of mentors, service providers, and programs the house has already vetted for you.
We’re not building this alone.
Entrepreneurs House is a collaboration — three partners bring funding access, LGBTQIA+ founder programming, and the platform that turns the house into a venue.
PeerFounder helps everyday people create and fund transparent business campaigns through community lending. We're partnering to co-host community events at the house that connect founders directly to that funding network.
peerfounder.com LGBTQ+ Founder NetworkStartOutThe leading nonprofit supporting LGBTQ+ and allied entrepreneurs — 28,000+ people connected and $1.58B+ raised across 1,829 companies. Together we're bringing StartOut programming and community events into the house.
startout.org Venue & Booking PlatformAvenueAvenue turns any space into a bookable venue. As our pilot partner, Avenue lists the house for events, supplies marketing support, and opens the property to wider community access — while helping grow its income potential.
