Founders, Freelancers & Self-Starters Speed Dating at Ruya

A Speed Dating Experience - FOUNDERS, FREELANCERS & SELF-STARTERS

Looking to meet like-minded people in St. Pete?

Join us for an evening designed for entrepreneurs, creatives, and self-starters. Thoughtfully curated to spark real connection—whether romantic, social, or professional.

April 8 from 6-830 PM.

Info: Arrive between 6:00–6:15 PM, grab your complimentary drink (wine, sangria, or coffee — included with your ticket). Speed dating starts promptly at 6:30 PM –yes, there will be a couple of breaks built in.
Each round is 3 minutes. You’ll rotate through conversations with every person in the room — we keep it moving so it never gets awkward.
At the end of each round, you’ll have a personal paper card with every attendee’s name on it. You’ll privately check off “dating, networking, or neither” for each person. Nobody sees your card. Only the host collects them at the end of the night, and within 24 hours we’ll send out your mutual matches separately — romantic and networking. No awkward in-person moments, no pressure.
Rounds wrap up at 8:00 PM, and we’ll keep the patio open for open networking and mingling until 8:30 PM.
