AFTER
HOURS
Make friends without making it feel like networking.
Afterhours is a social experience series for young adults who want to meet new people without the ‘fakeness’ of the corporate small talk.
WHY AFTERHOURS EXIST
Somewhere along the way, meeting people started to feel like work
Every event feels like networking.
Every conversation starts with what you do.
Every hello makes you wonder if there is an agenda behind it.
Afterhours was created to bring back something simpler
A space to unwind after work.
Somewhere to have fun, play, and meet new people naturally, without pressure, expectations, or hidden agendas.
Because connections don’t have to always be useful. They can just be human.
