The UNSW Founders community of researchers, founders, funders, mentors and startup enthusiasts gather monthly for exclusive insights.
Join us on Thursday 5 of February for the 1st First Thursdays of 2026 and start the year by connecting with the community!
We’re opening the New Year with a founder who’s no stranger to new starts!
Join us for an unfiltered conversation with Frank Greeff, co-founder of Kinso as he shares his journey of building, selling, and building again.
Frank bootstrapped and sold Realbase for $180M, leading a 400-person team to 47% market share, and was named CEO Magazine’s “CEO of the Year” in 2022.
Now, he’s taking the learnings from that journey, what worked, what didn’t, and what really matters, and putting it into Kinso, an AI-powered inbox designed to help founders and execs cut through the noise and focus on what matters most.
With 14,000+ signups and counting, Kinso is becoming a go-to tool for startup leaders.
Frank also hosts Chew The Fat, a Top 100 business podcast featuring guests like Carmelo Anthony, Simon Squibb, Grant Hackett, Dan Martell, James Smith and the founder of $2.5B SafetyCulture.
This is the perfect conversation to join to inspire the unsure, build your nerve, and launch your own idea in 2026.
In this conversation, Frank will unpack:
- How to build and exit without VC funding
- Lessons in leadership from scaling to acquisition
- Why 2026 is the year to build something bold
First Thursdays is back and full of real talk!
