March is Women’s History Month! Celebrate with Springboard at our exclusive Networking Brunch on Sunday, March 15, 2026, from 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM CT.
Building When the Rules Are Broken: How Women Win in Market Chaos
A real-talk panel with exited founders and VCs on the mindsets, skillsets, and systems that unlock growth when the old playbook is out
Panel Discussion Topic
The world isn’t “business as usual” — capital is tighter, noise is louder, and founders are being asked to do more with less. Join Springboard at SXSW for a high-energy brunch and candid conversation with Kay Koplovitz, Ruby Gadelrab, Oksana Malysheva, and Danyel Surrency Jones on how to build momentum anyway. We’ll dig into what’s really happening in today’s market, where the opportunities are hiding, and the mindsets, skillsets, and systems that help founders grow capital-efficiently, turn networks into outcomes, and scale with a repeatable operating cadence. Expect practical takeaways, real talk, and the kind of connections that can change your next 6–24 months.
