Networking is Broken. Let’s try some quick fixes over lunch.
Midsummer is almost here...
Almedalen is around the corner. Calendars are filling up. People are wrapping projects, planning holidays, and preparing for Sweden's annual disappearing act.
Which makes this the perfect time to plant a few seeds before everyone scatters for the summer.
As part of the first gathering of the Human Connection Cluster, we're inviting founders, business leaders, community builders, consultants, creatives, and curious humans who believe relationships matter.
This isn't a traditional networking event.
No pitches.
No awkward small talk.
No standing around wondering who to talk to.
Instead, you'll join a small group, move through a series of guided conversations, share what you're working on, help others where you can, and discover opportunities that might otherwise wait until autumn.
Why now?
Because September is built in June.
The introductions you make today.
The ideas you share.
The challenges you talk about.
The people who remember you.
Those are often the conversations that become partnerships, clients, hires, collaborations, and opportunities after summer.
Who should attend?
This lunch is for people whose success depends on relationships.
You might be a:
Founder or entrepreneur
Business leader
Consultant or advisor
Community builder
Event professional
Experience designer
People & culture leader
Connector, facilitator, or superconnector
Relationship-driven professional
If you believe great things happen through people, you'll probably enjoy this lunch.
