Nova Tour 2026 Cities

Where we'll be.

Overview

Nova Tour 2026 meets operators where they work, in the cities where the operating happens. Small-format, conversation-driven stops build trust faster than any conference keynote ever does.

Where we will be. Per-city tour stops scheduled around operator-friendly venues. Calendar published in advance.
Operator meetups. Small-group conversations, not big rooms. Density of useful conversation per attendee is the metric.
Live demos. Product walkthroughs grounded in real workflows. Operators ask the questions; the demo follows.
Founder Q&A plus customer hours. Open conversation with the founder; dedicated time for existing customers to surface issues directly.

The approach

Three habits make a tour produce real signal: operator-grounded venues, small format, and a feedback loop that flows from city visits into product priorities.

Operator-grounded venues. Coffee shops, coworking spaces, small venues operators actually visit. Skip the convention centre.
Small format. 10 to 30 attendees per stop. Conversation depth scales inversely with audience size.
Conversation-driven. Operators set the agenda. Pre-set agendas produce sales pitches; operator-set agendas produce signal.
Founder presence plus documented feedback. Founder shows up; per-stop feedback feeds product priorities the next quarter.

Why this compounds

Each stop builds relationships and grounds the team in operator reality. The tour’s value compounds because trust accumulates and the next stop in the same city is easier than the first.

Community trust. In-person presence produces trust that virtual events cannot match. Renewals and references follow.
Feedback loop. Per-stop operator input lands in the product backlog. Customers see their input shipped within quarters.
Team grounding. The team meets operators in their own context. Priorities stop being abstract and become specific.
Year-one investment, year-two habit. The first city is heavy lift. By the fifth or sixth stop, the patterns are reflexive.
