Founders Court is Germany’s Padel × Founder community, bringing together founders, entrepreneurs, and investors through the power of sport and meaningful connections. Our concept is simple: we combine padel with curated networking experiences designed to create genuine relationships beyond the usual business setting. Every Friday, we host an Open Court session for 8–16 members of our community to play padel together in a relaxed and personal atmosphere. Once a month, we bring the wider community together for our Main Event: 40–50 selected guests, a dynamic padel format that enables everyone to play with as many different partners as possible, followed by open-ended networking including drinks. We are also proud to introduce Female Founders Court, a dedicated format created to connect and empower female founders, entrepreneurs, and investors. Founders Court is currently active in Berlin, Hamburg, and Cologne. Our events are exclusively available to community members.
