This document discusses how to build and scale community culture for an early-stage company. It recommends starting with a strong sense of purpose and values, and using rituals to create a shared identity and emotional connections among community members. Rituals can be scaled organically by empowering community leaders and fostering 1:1 interactions. The key is meeting the community where they are and facilitating connections between members so the culture perpetuates on its own.
