One week in a private Tuscan villa with founders & investors. Deep co-working, workshops on AI, funding, growth, personal health and more, and a room where the way you work is the baseline.
Together with other founders & investors, surrounded by natural beauty and charming towns such as San Gimignano and Volterra, you will combine the best of working & recharging.
Expand your network, sharpen your thinking, and come home with a plan. The Tuscan Working Retreat is application-only.
You're building or backing companies, and the day-to-day leaves little room to think. This week puts you among peers who get it.
Step away from the day-to-day. A week in Tuscany gives you the space to see your work and your company clearly again.
Swap what is working on funding, growth and AI with people at your level.
Tangible outputs, not theory. Break through the ceiling of your current setup, from funding and growth to AI and your own health.
A week together beats a hundred meetups. Build real connections with founders and investors who get it.
Start the day with yoga, a trail run, or a mindful walk. Body and mind, warmed up.
Deep, focused work on your business, without interruptions.
Together at the villa. Tuscan food, good conversation.
Hands-on sessions on AI, funding, growth, personal health and more, each designed to produce a tangible output.
Dinner at the villa or in town, and the conversations that matter most.
A calm weekly rhythm: deep workshops, Tuscan experiences, long dinners, and optional work sessions late into the night. Workshops on AI, funding, growth, personal health and more anchor the week, and there will be a few surprises along the way. The full workshop programme is announced before the retreat.
Breakfast, lunches and dinners at the villa are included. Dinners in Volterra and San Gimignano are your own choice and not included. Drinks are at your own expense, except the welcome aperitivo and the wine tasting. Flights are not included.
Specific to your company and where you are now. Not a generic framework.
Built during the workshops: from an AI workflow to a funding or growth plan you can use the day you get home.
Fellow founders and investors who've seen your setup, pressure-tested your thinking, and will hold you accountable after the retreat.
Half the value of a good strategy is knowing what not to do. Avoid the traps that waste six months.
What deserves your time, what to delegate, and what to drop. Concrete decisions, not theory.
A week of Tuscan mornings, great food, and conversations that remind you why you started. You'll come back sharp.
So you can focus entirely on the work and the people.

Real moments from the first edition. Deep work, morning training, Tuscan excursions, long dinners under the stars, and the friendships that tie it all together.
Glenn runs G2 Ventures and hosted the first edition of this retreat. He does it because a week together creates something a conference never does: long-lasting, meaningful relationships on a deeper level. The 2027 edition is organised by Glenn and Hira together.
Every detail is curated: the villa, the workshop format, the group composition. The goal is a group of people who genuinely help each other think, in a place that makes it impossible not to.
