About this Event
🦥 Slow Networking for Introverts (Ambiverts/Extroverts Welcome!)
Ever go to a networking event and leave feeling drained, unseen, or like it was all just... transactional?
You know the kind... where people only talk to you if there’s something in it for them, or they hand out business cards like confetti. 😒
Well, we’re doing things differently.
At our Slow Networking event, we focus on what truly matters: slow, intentional, deep connections. ✨
This is your invitation to slow down, connect meaningfully, and enjoy genuine conversations in a calm, intimate setting.
🌸 What Makes This Different
✨ Everyone gets the chance to speak and be heard. No awkward interruptions or forced small talk.
🗣️ Gentle icebreakers and group activities to get to know the facilitators and others in the room.
🍵 Your ticket includes one drink from the menu.
We’ll provide the structure, so you don’t have to worry about what to say or how to “network.” Just bring yourself. No performance, no pressure, no need for liquid courage.
Introverts, we see you 👀. This is your space to breathe, be yourself, and take off the mask.
Extroverts and ambiverts, we’d love your presence too. Bring your spark and help make the room come alive. 🌟
🎐 Slow Networking + Creative Workshop
We’re excited to welcome Eirene Keh, a Strategist, Service Designer & Educator working in education and healthcare tech, someone we actually met through one of our own slow networking events.
What drew us to her right away was her creativity. She’s always exploring new craft projects and experimenting with different mediums to bring ideas to life. So it felt only natural to invite her to guide us through something hands-on.
This time, we’ll be creating a Paper Lantern together ✨
After our initial connection activities, we’ll ease into a more meditative, creative experience where you’ll:
• Be gently guided through folding, shaping, and assembling your own sculptural paper lamp
• Move at your own pace in a supportive and welcoming space
• Let quiet focus and thoughtful conversation naturally coexist
This is a chance to slow down in a different way: not just through conversation, but through creating with your hands.
You’ll still have space to chat and connect, but without the pressure of constant talking. Sometimes, it’s easier to connect side by side rather than face to face.

💖 Why Slow Networking?
Because meaningful connections take time.
Because we believe relationships built on authenticity, not business cards, are the ones that last.
And because you deserve to connect without the “ick.”
Come slow network with us. 🌿
Take a deep breath.
And let’s make space for real connection.
