StartUps in Security Mastermind

The SIA Startup Mastermind Community is a trusted peer network for security industry founders and startup leaders to exchange real-world insights, pressure-test decisions, and navigate the unique challenges of building companies in high-risk, regulated, trust-based markets.

This is not a pitch group.

This is a decision-making and leadership forum.

Who It’s For

Founders, executives and leaders of:
- Physical security technology
- Cyber-physical convergence platforms
- AI / analytics / data-driven security solutions
- Life safety, risk, and resilience technologies
- Security service providers
SIA Startup members, emerging leaders, and innovation-track companies

Ideal group size: 6–8 leaders per cohort, and possibly broken out by job role (founders, HR, sales, etc. ) or industry segment (Technology Firms/Manufacturers, Consultants, Integrators, etc.)

Cadence & Format

12-month cohort model with themed monthly meetings
60-minute virtual sessions each month
Private Slack channels to connect between meetings
In-person meetups at SIA events
