About this Event
Event Description
Celebrate Pride with StartOut in Los Angeles for an intimate conversation with Lucy Guo, one of the most influential founders shaping the future of AI and the creator economy.
As the co-founder of Scale AI and founder of Passes, Lucy has built and scaled companies at the center of two of today’s most powerful industries. Her journey has made her the world’s youngest self-made female billionaire, redefining what leadership and success look like in tech.
This exclusive event will take place at PASSES HQ in Los Angeles.
In this event, Lucy will share how she built her career, navigated the tech ecosystem as an openly queer founder, and created opportunities on her own terms. Attendees will gain a candid, behind-the-scenes perspective on building, scaling, and positioning in highly competitive markets.
This event is designed for founders, operators, creators, and LGBTQ+ entrepreneurs looking for real insight, meaningful connections, and exposure to high-impact thinking.
The evening begins with a VIP meet & greet (available with VIP ticket purchase), followed by a curated cocktail reception open to all attendees, a live fireside conversation, and a post-event reception to continue the conversations.
All proceeds support StartOut’s mission to increase opportunity, visibility, and success for LGBTQ+ entrepreneurs.
