8 Figure Live came to Orange County on September 17, 2026, and from the first fist bump it felt like a room full of founders who already knew each other.

Coffee and catching up

The 8 Figure Live logo lit up the entrance and the lounge, and people settled in there with coffee before the first session.

Case studies and a panel

The room was full, every chair turned toward the stage and its glowing white triangle. The theme was the exit: stepping out of operations, or selling through M&A. At the April event, when the host asked who wanted to sell their company, 60 to 80 percent of the room raised a hand.

Breakouts in circles, then out to the patio

For the mastermind breakouts, we pulled the chairs into tight circles. Between sessions the conversations moved outside, onto white sofas under umbrellas on the turf.
