Founding Membership

Become a Founding Member

Limited to the first leaders selected in each city.

Founding Members help establish the foundation of the CityBox leadership ecosystem while securing preferred placement and founding recognition.

Founding Membership Includes

CityBox Index Profile

A professionally curated profile highlighting your background, expertise, company, and leadership journey.

Business Profile Placement

Showcase your organization within the CityBox ecosystem.

Founding Recognition

Permanent recognition as a Founding Member within your city.

Leadership Visibility

Strategic placement designed to support discoverability and professional credibility.

Community Access

Invitations to CityBox leadership experiences, gatherings, and opportunities.

How Membership Works

CityBox Index is organized by industry and city.

Each city begins with a limited Founding Membership Class consisting of:

  • 10 Industries

  • 10 Professionals Per Industry

  • 100 Founding Members Total

Founding Membership is available only during the inaugural launch period of each city. Once all 100 Founding Member positions are filled, Founding Membership closes permanently for that city.

Membership Continues Beyond the Founding Class

CityBox Index does not stop at 100 members.

Following the completion of the Founding Membership Class, a new membership wave opens each month, welcoming up to 100 additional professionals across the same 10 industries.

These monthly membership waves allow CityBox Index to continually grow its leadership community while preserving the exclusivity and recognition of the Founding Member designation.

Professionals who are interested after the Founding Membership Class is filled may join the waitlist for the next available membership wave.

Annual Membership Pricing

Membership rates increase over time as new membership waves are introduced.

However, members receive an important advantage:

Your annual renewal rate is locked in at the price you joined.

For example:

  • Join at $299 annually and renew at $299 annually.

  • Join at $599 annually and renew at $599 annually.

  • Join at $999 annually and renew at $999 annually.

As long as membership remains active and in good standing, members retain their original renewal rate year after year.

If a membership is allowed to lapse, reactivation is subject to the current membership rate in effect at that time.

Founding Member Advantage

Founding Members receive permanent recognition as members of the inaugural leadership class for their city.

In addition to securing the lowest available membership rate, Founding Members help establish the foundation of the CityBox leadership ecosystem and are recognized as the first cohort of leaders represented within their market.

Monthly Leadership Cohorts

Each membership wave may include:

  • Professional profile placement within CityBox Index

  • Access to leadership networking opportunities

  • Invitations to CityBox leadership gatherings and convenings

  • Eligibility for CityBox editorial features and collaborative initiatives

  • Access to ARENCON GLOBAL meet-and-greet experiences and leadership events

A Growing National Leadership Community

CityBox Index is designed for continuous growth.

Every month, up to 100 new professionals may be welcomed into each participating city, creating an expanding network of business leaders, entrepreneurs, executives, innovators, and community builders throughout the United States.

Membership opportunities continue to open monthly, while early members retain the benefits and pricing advantages earned when they joined.

Join early. Your annual membership renewal rate is locked in for as long as you remain an active member.

I’ve sat across from families who’ve lost everything because of a dangerous drug, a defective product, or corporate negligence and I’ve seen firsthand what happens when the system fails them. That fire in my gut to right those wrongs? It’s never gone out."
