A new private membership community has been launched specifically for the leaders of technology companies. The TNW Council is an exclusive network designed for founders and senior executives, offering a space for high-level peer interaction and strategic visibility. This initiative creates a curated environment where experienced professionals can forge meaningful connections, participate in editorial opportunities, and gain special access to premier industry events.
The community maintains a strict global limit of one thousand members, ensuring a focused and valuable network. Admission is not automatic; every potential member must complete a formal application that undergoes a thorough review process. This selective approach aims to assemble a group of proven leaders who are actively shaping the future of the tech sector.
Membership benefits are comprehensive and tailored for executive needs. Those accepted gain opportunities to contribute insights and thought leadership across the platform’s editorial channels. They receive access to specially curated expert panels and can create a verified executive profile. A significant advantage is the priority and VIP access granted to major conferences, along with exclusive invitations to private gatherings and closed-door sessions that are not available to the general public.
Further perks include an official Council badge, entry into a meticulously managed private network of fellow founders and executives, and dedicated Concierge support for personalized, high-touch assistance. The program is structured to provide both visibility and substantive peer engagement for its members.
The council is expressly intended for founders and technology executives whose companies have reached a specific scale, requiring a minimum of one million euros in annual recurring revenue. Applicants must also hold a decisive leadership role within their organization. An internal selection committee evaluates all submissions against these criteria to maintain the community’s standards.
Applications to join this selective group are currently being accepted. The council represents a dedicated forum for technology leadership to connect, collaborate, and influence the industry’s direction through private dialogue and privileged access.
