About us
Entrepreneurship permeates the culture of Silicon Valley - the innovation capital of the world. The advent of the Digital Age has democratized innovation and entrepreneurship.
Never before has it been more possible for anyone from anywhere, with a great idea and a burning desire to succeed, to make it big, and in the process, change the world in a relatively short period of time.
HP, Intel, Apple, Microsoft, Cisco, Oracle, Yahoo, eBay, Amazon, Google, Facebook and many, many, many other iconic companies all started with just an idea. Taking a startup from idea to IPO has taken on mythical proportions in Silicon Valley and beyond. Many dream the dream, with hopes of launching the "next big thing".
We are a community of entrepreneurs, technologists, engineers, venture capitalists, angel investors, educators, financial professionals, corporate executives, attorneys, academics, bloggers, writers, content creators, and social activists.
Our mission is to provide entrepreneurs with the knowledge, guidance, tools, and connections they need to succeed.
Our goal is to build a strong, vibrant, collaborative entrepreneurial community with deep, lasting business and social relationships from Silicon Valley to Yerevan and beyond.

"I've applied to 80 jobs. I've heard back from one."
You've heard this from your smartest friends. From former top performers. Maybe from yourself. The market changed — AI rewrote the rules, recruiters are overwhelmed, and job seekers are exhausted. If that's you, the problem isn't effort. It's that effort without a strategy just produces more applications, not more offers.
In this session, you'll see the difference between doing more and doing the right things — and walk away with a concrete next step, not another list of tips to sit on.
What you'll learn:- The #1 mistake that makes even qualified candidates invisible to recruiters
- How to build a target market instead of applying to anything remotely related to your background
- Why "networking" usually fails — and what a useful conversation actually looks like
- The shift from application volume to strategic execution, and how to make it stick past week one
This is for you if:
- You've been laid off, ghosted, or stuck without knowing why
- You're changing careers and don't know where to start
- You're tired of activity that doesn't turn into conversations
From there, two paths, not two products with a winner. Work through your strategy independently with The Playbook. Or get live coaching and a cohort in 6 Weeks to Hired: The Fall 2026 Job Search Bootcamp — Playbook included for the program, plus two months free after it ends.
Either way, you leave with a plan, not a longer to-do list.1 attendee3 Hours to Research Intelligence: Build Your First AI Agent

You're either looking at a company to join, or you're trying to understand what your competitors are doing. Either way, you're researching blind—reading scattered reviews, googling company news, checking LinkedIn. It takes forever and you miss things.
Stop doing this manually.
In this workshop, you'll customize and deploy a working AI research agent in 3 hours. Fork an existing competitive intelligence agent, wire in your own data sources (RSS feeds, APIs, whatever's available), and run it. Feed it a company or industry keyword. Get back structured intelligence: recent news, hiring patterns, market positioning, gaps, red flags.
What you'll actually do:- Clone a working competitive intelligence agent from GitHub
- Add your own custom data sources (RSS feeds, open APIs, etc.)
- Test it live on a real company or competitor
- Walk away with a deployed agent you can run 100+ times
Two use cases, one agent:
- Job Seeker Mode — Research a company before you apply, interview, or accept an offer. Understand growth, hiring, leadership, red flags.
- Competitive Mode — Understand what competitors are doing, market gaps, hiring trends, strategic moves. For employees and side hustlers.
What you need before the workshop:
- 10 min of pre-work (optional, but recommended): Clone the GitHub repo, set up your API key, test it runs
- A laptop with a browser (Claude.ai)
- Basic comfort with Claude—you should already be asking it questions and iterating
After the workshop:
- Post-work recap doc: What you built, how to iterate, advanced techniques, troubleshooting
- Optional upsell: Advanced agent techniques course (separate paid offering)
This is NOT:
- A tutorial on "how to use AI"
- A guide to corporate strategy
- A tool for stalking or privacy violations (we cover ethical guardrails)
Price: $17–27 (one-time, includes materials + post-work doc)
Pre-work is optional. If you complete it, you'll hit the ground running. If you skip it, no problem—we'll set up during the first 20 minutes.1 attendee10% OFF! 6 Weeks to HIRED: The Fall 2026 Job Search Bootcamp

The job market is projected to stay tight through Q4 2026 and Q1 of 2027. That's not a reason to panic — it's a reason to get specific. In a slower market, activity doesn't win. Strategy does.
If your search right now looks like more applications, another resume draft, and less response than you'd like, the problem usually isn't effort. It's that the effort has no plan behind it.
6 Weeks to Hired is built around that fix: a five-part framework — Positioning, Targeting, Networking, Conversion, Execution — taught live, applied to your actual search, inside The Playbook as your working system for the program.
What we cover:- Week 1 (10/26) — Positioning: What do you want the market to remember about you, and what evidence backs it up?
- Week 2 (11/2) — Targeting: Build a real shortlist of roles and companies worth your time — not a spray list.
- Week 3 (11/9) — Networking: Turn LinkedIn and your network into actual conversations, not cold messages that go nowhere.
- Week 4 (11/16) — Conversion: Materials and outreach that get through recruiter and ATS filters — now that there's a strategy behind them.
- (Light async check-in the week of 11/23 — no live session, program's off for Thanksgiving.)
- Week 5 (11/30) — Interview: Tell your story with confidence and control the conversation instead of reacting to it.
- Week 6 (12/7) — Execution: Turn offers into better offers, and leave with a 90-day plan for after the cohort ends.
Six live sessions across seven calendar weeks — we skip the week of Thanksgiving, with a light touchpoint in between so momentum doesn't stall.
Participants in past cohorts have consistently negotiated $500–$10,000 more once they know what to ask for and when to push. This cohort, you also get the tool built to make that repeatable: full Playbook access for the six weeks, two months free after the program ends, then a discounted ongoing rate if you want to keep going.
Your instructors and guests:- Albert Qian — Founder, Albert's List
- Elisa Huang — LinkedIn and Networking Expert, Co-Host, Albert's List
- Lucy Thompson — Recruiter, Betts Recruiting
- Cory Hiromoto — Career Coach, CareerShakers.com
- Jonaed Iqbal — Founder, NoDegree.com
- Nader Mowlaee — Founder, Engineer Your Mission
What's included:
- 6 live weekly Zoom sessions
- Live regular office hours on Wednesday afternoons.
- Light touchpoint during the Thanksgiving-week gap
- Office hours for Q&A and coaching
- Templates, scripts, and checklists
- Private accountability group
- Full free access to The Playbook, the Albert's List SaaS helping you develop and execute your strategy + discounted access afterwards.
- Optional 1-on-1 sessions with instructors,
- Money-back guarantee if you complete the course and don't get value within one year
This isn't a feel-good pep talk or a resume touch-up. It's six weeks of strategy, coaching, and a system you keep using after the cohort ends.
