The formats

Four formats, deliberately different.

Afterwork drinks, a morning on the court, an afternoon founders' pitch over coffee, and co-founder speed dating. Each draws a different crowd and a different energy — the thread that ties them together is simple: the right people, actually meeting.

Thursdays · 7–10pm
Connecting Drinks

Drinks, with the introductions made for you

hosted intros

An evening at a high-end Abu Dhabi venue, 7–10pm — standing and relaxed by design, so you can move and meet as many people as you like across the night. A dedicated window to connect with others living or doing business in the capital. You pay only for what you order: fair, no cover, no commitment. Find it valuable and you'll come back anyway.

Sundays · 11:30am–2pm
Padel and Coffee / Shakes

Sunday padel, then coffee or shakes

All levels

The best connections rarely happen around a high-top table. We book the courts on Sunday mornings, draw the doubles pairings, and let the game handle the introductions — then everyone regroups over coffee or shakes. You'll remember the person you partnered with long after you've forgotten a stack of business cards. All levels welcome. More →︎

Mondays · 3–6pm
Monday Coffee Pitch

Founders pitch over coffee

investors in the room

Built for founders raising capital or chasing their first clients. You share the idea, high level, and tell us exactly who you want in the room — investors, business angels, CTOs, CISOs — and we work our contacts to confirm those profiles before setting the session in a curated space. Cost is kept minimal (a projector, coffee and pastries) and covered by those pitching. Want to pitch? Tell us when you request your invite. More →︎

Seasonal · an evening
The Pairing

Co-founder speed dating

find your co-founder

A handful of tables, short structured rounds, and one evening to find your co-founder. Built for founders ready to team up — you meet everyone in the room, then carry on with the ones who fit. Tell us you're looking when you request your invite. More →︎

Faces stay private — it’s who’s in the room that counts.
