💬 Come Join the Conversation
Exit Hours is a community for startup builders, dreamers, and doers in Orange County & LA. We host regular sessions that typically feature a candid deep dive from a founder or operator, followed by real-world showcases from local entrepreneurs — not pitches, but progress.
No sales. No fluff. Just lessons, feedback, and honest conversations. Whether you're shipping a side project, scaling your startup, or just startup-curious — Exit Hours is your space to connect, learn, and share. Grab a seat, meet other founders, and leave a little smarter than you came in.
