The Antisocial Lounge Live: "Don't Chase Better Ideas. Build Better Rooms"
Vallist - Finlaison House
London, United Kingdom
Description
The best ideas rarely happen in isolation. They happen in the right room, with the right people, having the right conversations.
Join us for an intimate evening of honest conversation as The Antisocial Lounge Live brings together inspiring guests for a live podcast-style discussion exploring why the spaces we create - both physical and social - shape the ideas, opportunities and connections that change everything.
With just 23 tickets available, this isn't another networking event or panel discussion. It's a carefully curated experience designed to spark meaningful conversations, fresh perspectives and unexpected connections. Our "antisocial" bread and butter here at The Antisocial Socialites (the growing global community ripping up the networking rulebook and redefining what connection looks like).
Oh... and it just happens to be our 4th Business birthday too!
Expect candid stories, practical insights and plenty of moments that make you think, "I've never looked at it like that before."
Whether you're a founder, freelancer, leader or creative, you'll leave with new ideas, new connections and a reminder that sometimes the most valuable thing isn't the idea itself - it's the room you're in.
SPEAKER ANNOUNCEMENT! We're delighted to be joined by Angela Lyons and Kier Adair (find out more in our "line up" section below) - both absolute movers and shakers in the world of community building, connection and stand-out inspiring events. Don't miss your chance to join us for this purposely intimate event.

We know you're going to love the interior (check out the pic in the gallery below!).
Lineup
Hosted by Yolanda Sissing & Liz Hamlet (Founders of The Antisocial Socialites)
Networking doesn't need to be stuffy and boring! The Antisocial Socialites are shaking up the world of networking for those craving something different, something that works for them, something long lasting beyond the 30 second pitch slap. The Antisocial Socialites was born of a desire to redefine networking. “Antisocial networking” is a concept dreamt up when we became bored and disillusioned with “same-y” events and when we couldn’t find “our tribe”. Our community of Antisocialites is 2,250+ people strong, globally... and continues to grow! Our events have up to 2,700 sign ups monthly and have been featured in LinkedIn's "In the Loop" newsletter (with a readership of 9.78 million).
