B2B Haus is officially growing beyond SXSW.

What began as a collaboration between @startupbaddie and @tiff_or_die // @brandcurators.co has become something much bigger. After debuting B2B Haus at SXSW 2026, they’re making it official and stepping into their next chapter as co-founders.

And the duo is now a trio.

Meet Maci Parr, our third co-founder, bringing the operational expertise and event passion needed to scale B2B Haus for next year’s SXSW and a second city.

We’re building the next version of B2B events, and we’re only getting started.

Welcome to the Haus, @maciparr by @startupbaddie

Most business leaders say they are (or want to be) customer-centric.

2026 will expose who is doing the work and who is just talking about it.

This year will reward clarity, community, and creativity, not noise, not sameness, and not reactive decision making. 

I created this prediction set to help founders and business leaders navigate the changes shaping product, hiring, growth, and trust.

Scroll, save, and share with a business leader. Which prediction is your team focusing on this year?

I’ve been noticing something across founders, teams, and culture:

the internet isn’t enough anymore.

Trust is fragile.
People are overwhelmed.
And digital-only brand building is becoming less effective by the week.

What people do trust?
Spaces where they feel understood.
Conversations that aren’t driven by algorithms.
Connection > content

So I wrote about it
Why the old brand playbook is collapsing, and what replaces it

Swipe through the photos for the core ideas

If you’re building anything in 2026, learn how you can be ahead of the shift

He raised way too much for his startup, gave up control, and paid for it the first time around.

Joseph Lee built @supademohq to $4M ARR on $1M raised. In Ep. 2 he tells us what he got wrong the first time, and what he’d tell every founder starting now.

What did you assume about building a business that turned out to be wrong? 👇
