Pando

Pando, founded in 2017, offers financial and community support services tailored for professionals in high-variance careers, such as startup founders and professional athletes. The company’s mission is to assist "dreamers" who embrace career risk by providing a range of products and services designed to manage financial volatility and foster peer support networks. One of Pando's key offerings is income pooling, which allows groups to combine their earnings to create a diversified financial safety net. This approach helps mitigate the unpredictable nature of their income streams. Additionally, Pando facilitates founder peer groups, where small groups of founders meet monthly to share advice and support. The company also provides community and networking tools, including Slack groups, curated introductions, and exclusive events, to enhance connections among its members. With a focus on confidentiality and community trust, Pando serves over 900 clients, collectively expected to earn more than $11 billion.
