What you need right now is probably already near you. You just have not met them yet.
Someone who has already done the thing you are about to attempt. A person to start something with. Work, a flat, an honest builder, a running partner on Sunday morning, a friend. In a city this size it is all within a few kilometres of where you are sitting.
The shortage is not people. It is introductions. Cities are full of people who could be useful to each other and never will be, because there is no moment where they would ever meet.
So we make that moment on purpose, and then we keep track of who you actually met — so the next time you need something, you are asking people whose faces you know rather than posting into a feed and hoping.
Not just money. Making more of what you already have — your ideas, your opportunities, and the people around you.
A network of people you have genuinely met is the most useful asset most people never build. It is the difference between a contact list and a group of people who will actually take your call, because they remember the conversation.
The club is not an event. It is the thing the events build up.
Speed friending is the format running today. It is a system on the club, not the club itself — the same machinery can run a smaller interview evening, or a themed one where the host sets the length and the questions. Each is another door into the same room.
Global by design and local by necessity — a connection only counts if you can actually reach the person.
We are starting in Lisbon. New cities open when there are enough members in them to be worth joining, and when somebody there wants to run it. A directory of people you will never meet would defeat the entire point.
Step by step, what you can count on, what we hold about you, and how connecting afterwards works.
What a host does, what we provide, and how a new city actually opens.
