BENEFITS

The Amplify Difference

Real-Access

No overpriced memberships, no upsells to courses, no pay-to-play gatekeeping.

 

Amplify's IRL events are included in your membership, including free event tickets, vetted sponsor discounts, and expert-led masterminds—to help founders actually scale.

Actionable

Forget transactional networking. Our members don’t just attend boring events—they form friendships, collaborate, invest, and grow together.

 

Amplify curates real, high-value connections through exclusive IRL events, VIP dinners, and our always-on digital Founderverse.

Vetted

Amplify was created by members of the Shark Tank Alumni network, who live the founder journey every day.

 

Unlike other networks run by investors or corporations, we understand the real challenges of building a brand—because we’re doing it too.

What attendees are saying

connect & scale

Austin Maxwell

“After attending the 'How To Actually Scale FB Ads' breakout session, we learned we were paying WAY too timidly & leaving hundreds of thousands of dollars (even millions) on the table. We took the lessons we learned in that session & it resulted in over $1M in additional revenue in Q4."

Tammy Rant

After attending the TikTok panel at the reunion and also seeing the success another brand that attended had with their post I decided to give it a go! So I posted this video on TikTok and it got 15.5 MILLION views and resulted in hundreds of thousands of dollars in sales and counting!"

Perfect mix of business & social interaction, and the Shark Tank Alumni are the best as we have all experienced something that is very unique and powerful!"
