It's the people, not the desk

You could work from anywhere. You come to Hippo Campus for the founders sitting next to you.

Group lunches

Pull up a chair for casual group lunches where you swap war stories with people building at the same hilariously early stage.

Investor office hours

We bring in a rotating mix of investors — Hustle Fund partners and friends from across the ecosystem — for honest, no-fluff feedback on your raise and your deck.

Events

Workshops, demos, and get-togethers throughout the month. Low stakes, high energy, lots of cheering.
