informed by research
We use techniques grounded in psychological research to offer people the tools they need to interact more genuinely and feel more connected to each other in their daily lives. We've read the white papers, sorted through the abstracts, and connected the dots to create social interaction activities that actually work. And guess what? We promise it won't be awkward.
Ticketed eventS
Our Skip the Small Talks (or STSTs) are a great place to get out of your comfort zone by opening up and connecting with strangers (or friends if you bring 'em)! We currently host in-person events in major cities in the United States and Europe as well as online events that you can attend from anywhere.
Custom workshops for teams and communities
We design research-based, one-of-a-kind events that maximize for almost any social goal, from learning how to cooperate and listen, to building rapport in a team, to helping individuals feel more socially connected in their everyday lives.
