View details →Why this layout works
Founder events are usually sparse, high-signal, and easy to miss. A calendar-like agenda keeps the timing obvious without hiding the event details in a dense month grid.
The agenda view is intentionally lightweight: it highlights the next items without hiding the context that founders need before committing time.
