Why use Slack?

You can build community with your fellow founders, access exclusive resources, and get in touch with LACI staff on Slack. Slack is the primary communications tool that you can use to connect with your EIR, your cohort, your Program Managers, and your fellow LACI founders! Slack is a user-friendly and efficient communication tool meant to be used for everyday interactions.

How to use Slack

You should have received your Slack login via email at the beginning of the program. If you didn't receive this email or are having trouble logging in, please contact your Program Manager.

When you join, you'll notice several channels. These Slack channels are topics for group conversations. You'll be added to most of the following channels:

LACI Startup Channels

• all_laci_startups
• #intros
• #la-kretz_inclusion
• laci_startups-events-and-workshop
• pc-funding
• pc-generalfeed
• #women-in-cleantech
• #apc_community
• #fba_general-feed
• fba-cohort __?
• #la-kretz_community
• market_access_companies

You can also start individual chats with anyone by clicking the "compose" icon next to Direct Messages and typing the person's name. This is an excellent way to collaborate with your fellow founders.
