Slow Networking 🦥
🦥 Slow Networking for Introverts (and Thoughtful Extroverts!)
Ever go to a networking event and leave feeling drained, unseen, or like it was all just... transactional?
You know the kind... where people only talk to you if there’s something in it for them, or they hand out business cards like confetti. 😒
Well, we’re doing things differently.
At our Slow Networking event, we focus on what truly matters — slow, intentional, deep connections. ✨
This is your invitation to slow down, connect meaningfully, and enjoy genuine conversations in a calm, intimate setting.
🌸 What Makes This Different
✨ Everyone gets the chance to speak and be heard — no awkward interruptions or forced small talk.
🗣️ Gentle icebreakers and group activities to get to know the facilitators and others in the room.
💭 A reflective sharing session where you can jot down your takeaways and (if you’d like) share your experience on social media.
🍵 Your ticket includes one drink from the menu.
We’ll provide the structure, so you don’t have to worry about what to say or how to “network.”
Just bring yourself — no performance, no pressure, no need for liquid courage.
Introverts, we see you 👀. This is your space to breathe, be yourself, and take off the mask.
Extroverts and ambiverts, we’d love your presence too. Bring your spark and help make the room come alive. 🌟
💬 Special Guest Speaker + Group Reflection
We’re excited to welcome a special guest speaker, Maathu Kajendran, the founder of an innovative app addressing affordable housing.
He’ll take us behind the scenes of his entrepreneurial journey, diving into the obstacles of starting up independently, learning how to pitch and network, and the power of thinking outside the box and pivoting when things don’t go as planned.
After his talk, we’ll break into small groups to reflect and brainstorm together. This will be your chance to:
💡 Explore new ideas for your business or creative projects
🌱 Get inspired if you’re just starting out or figuring out your next step
🤝 Support one another by sharing insights, experiences, and encouragement
You don’t need to come with a business idea, just curiosity and an open mind. We’ll guide you through gentle prompts and discussions to help ideas flow naturally.
Because sometimes, the best ideas (and partnerships!) begin from slow, thoughtful conversations. ✨

Because meaningful connections take time.
Because we believe relationships built on authenticity — not business cards — are the ones that last.
