not a course. not a service. a room.
the bakery is community — on purpose. no diagnostics. no products. no services. just builders, events, rooms, and the work of building alongside other people.
open work sessions
quiet rooms to do the work you keep avoiding, with other people doing the same.
peer review circles
small groups giving each other honest, useful feedback on what they're building.
shared events
quarterly gatherings, online and in person, for the wider collective.
what gets made in the bakery.
three programs run inside the maker space — one for visibility, one for transition, one for shared problem-solving.
baker's dozen.
a curated spotlight on ventures, founders, and operators worth knowing — visibility and context for builders the wider world hasn't seen yet.
exit54.
helping african and diaspora ventures find the right next home — buyers, partners, and acquisition pathways for founders ready to grow, transition, or step away.
breaking bread.
real problems, submitted by members, solved together. quarterly hybrid sessions, small rooms, limited seats. the work happens at the table.
builders, by practice.
five kinds of people make up the bakery — together they bring practical wisdom from actually doing the work.
