About Hampton

Hampton is a membership community for founders, CEOs and owners of growing companies. Members are placed in a core group of about eight peers that meets monthly with a paid, trained moderator, and get access to local chapter events and a digital community.^{Source [4]}^{Source [3]}

Applicants must run a business with more than $3 million in revenue, have raised more than $3 million in venture capital, or have had an exit above $10 million, and must live in one of its chapter cities. Applications are screened, interviewed and reviewed by current members before an invitation.^{Source [4]}

Sam Parr says the idea came from a monthly peer group he formed with Joe Speiser while running The Hustle. The company charges an annual membership fee, reported as $8,500 at launch and $9,500 in 2024, and Community Inc. reported about $8 million in annual recurring revenue in 2024.^{Source [5]}^{Source [2]}

What happened

Sam Parr and Joe Speiser started Hampton in the summer of 2022 and launched it publicly on March 28, 2023, after a soft launch that reached about 260 to 300 members. It was self-funded by the co-founders. It now describes itself as a network of 1,000+ members organized into monthly core groups across chapter cities in the US, Canada and the UK.^{Source [1]}^{Source [3]}^{Source [2]}^{Source [4]}^{Source [6]}
