Here & Now: A Phone-Free Experience (NYC)

​​You spend your days building, thinking, pushing.

​​​Always plugged in. Always on.

​​​But deep down, you’re craving something that can’t be found on a screen.

​​​So what if you took a break?

​​​​​What to Expect:

​​​​A curated, phone-free social experience for ambitious people who want more out of their time offline.

​​​No notifications. No distractions. Just great people, deep conversations, and a menu of cocktails (NA included) and snacks available for purchase.

​​​​​Upon arrival, you'll check your phone with us for safekeeping. From there, your only job is to be fully present.

​​Who’s Invited:

​​​​Builders, founders, thinkers, creatives. The curious and the intentional.

​​​If you're craving real relationships with people who get it, you’ll feel right at home.

​​​​This isn’t a networking event. This is a place to feel human again.

​​Can I come alone?

Yes! Many people come alone and leave with a long list of people they actually want to see again.

​​Where:

East Village, NYC. Address released upon approval.

​​Date & Time:

August 19th, 630pm-9pm EST
