An Open Hour With Mark

Come with your questions about AI, your business, and whether BoS OS is worth your time. No agenda, just an open conversation every Tuesday, 4:00pm UK.

Bring what’s actually on your mind: what you’ve tried, what didn’t work, what you’re still unsure about. Mark answers directly, and you’ll hear what other founders in the room are wrestling with too.

WHO THIS IS FOR

WHO THIS ISN’T FOR

If you’ve already decided you want in, skip this and go straight to the Introductory Workshop. If you’re pre-revenue or still finding product-market fit, come back when there’s more to work with.

What founders say:


“It’s profoundly transformative, and I’m very excited to be still in the software business at this time.” – Martin Millican

The “company operating system” framing landed where “AI tool” framing hadn’t. Maps immediately to Deming and systems thinking. – Bobby Moesta

What happens in the hour:

  • Bring a real question about your business. Mark works through it with you, live
  • Hear what other founders in the room are stuck on
  • No fixed agenda: the conversation goes where the room takes it

Registrations are open

Every Tuesday, 4:00pm UK

Facilitated by

Mark Littlewood
Founder, Business of Software

Mark has run Business of Software for 19 years, two annual conferences, more than 400 practitioner talks, and a community of founders building software companies that last. He has spent that time working out what actually separates the businesses that make it from those that don’t. This workshop is built on the same principle as every BoS event: helping entrepreneurs build better businesses alongside other smart people.
