Born Global Eat Global - Haitian Night
Born Global Eat Global - Haitian Night
An intentionally curated dinner bringing together globally minded founders, funders, friends and families shaping the future across borders and industries.
Not every deal starts in a boardroom.
Some begin over saffron rice, warm bread, and a conversation that lingers longer than expected.
This isn’t just a dinner, it’s an introduction to the cuisine and culture along with some educational entertainment. And we will be doing this for different countries each month.
Come hungry—for flavor, for stories, for the future being built right here in Houston, the Global City of the Future.
The No. 1 diverse city in the U.S.;
The No. 1 city for foreign businesses in the U.S.;
Where over 90 consulates represent the world;
Where 145+ languages are spoken across neighborhoods.
This evening, we gather around the table—not just to eat, but to connect across cultures, ideas, and lived experiences.
Who should attend
Founders building across borders (or thinking about it)
Investors, operators, and creators who think globally
Friends, family, and and next-generation leaders growing into that mindset
If you’ve ever felt that “global” isn’t a strategy but a way of seeing the world—you’ll fit right in.
Why attend
Because the future isn’t built in isolation. It’s built in rooms like this.
Because real opportunities don’t start with cold outreach. They
start with shared experiences and trusted relationships.
Because Houston is quietly becoming becoming one of the most important global crossroads.
And you’re either in the room…or hearing about it later.
What you’ll get
Real conversations (not panels, not pitches, but actual human exchange)
Connections that can turn into partnerships, deals, or lifelong friendships
Exposure to different cultures, markets, and ways of thinking
And yes—exceptional Haitian food that deserves your full attention.
The Experience
Hosted at a beloved Haitian restaurant, where bold flavors, vibrant traditions, and warm hospitality come together around one table.
Think griot, diri ak pwa, plantains, pikliz, rich Caribbean spices, and stories that travel from the mountains of Haiti to communities around the world.
You'll discover the history, resilience, music, and culture behind the food—and perhaps even learn a few Haitian Creole phrases along the way.
This isn’t a “networking event.”
It’s a table.
A table where strangers become friends, cultures become stories, and conversations linger long after dinner should have ended.
Lakay se Lakay — home is home.
And for one evening, we invite you to experience the warmth of Haiti as if you were family.
