Beyond the Hustle

Founder Wellness at Tech Week GR
The culture around building companies has a blind spot — and most founders already know what it is. You can optimize your product, your pitch, and your pipeline, but if you’re running on empty, none of it compounds the way it should.
Beyond the Hustle is a dedicated morning at Tech Week Grand Rapids for founders, operators, and ecosystem leaders who are serious about longevity — not just in their careers, but in their health, their leadership, and the way they show up every day. Brought together by Midwest House, Coya, Washington Avenue Ventures, Flying with Founders, Breaking Bread AI, Inside Out Leadership, Human Solution, Start Garden, Bamboo, and more, it’s a morning that treats performance and recovery as core builder skills, not afterthoughts.
Come to recharge. Come to reconnect with why you’re building in the first place. Come because the people in the room will be the kind of people who make each other better — and because the habits you leave with are the kind that compound.
