Social event curation

We help people create niche social events.

Most gatherings feel like networking roulette. We believe the best connections happen when everyone shares a real interest — and the room is small enough to actually talk.

Generic events are hard to love.

Big rooms, small talk, and business cards that go straight in the bin. General events are built for volume, not relationships.

Surface-level conversations

You're stuck repeating the same elevator pitch instead of diving into what genuinely excites you.

Crowds that don't click

A hundred people in a room doesn't mean you'll find the people you actually want to know.

No follow-up momentum

After a night of small talk, the connections rarely last past the parking lot.

How it works

Four simple steps to turn a shared interest into a memorable gathering.

01

Identify the event you want to host

Pick a niche — from founder breakfasts to pottery-and-wine nights. A small theme makes the conversation effortless.

02

Figure out the logistics and details

Set the date, venue, size, and vibe. We keep it intimate so guests actually talk, not just scan the room.

03

Promote your event via social media

Use our templates and social assets to reach the right people, not just the most people.

04

Attend the actual event

Show up, host with confidence, and watch a room of strangers become a circle of friends.

Our story

From awkward mixers to meaningful rooms

Hi, I'm Shaun Kaushal. A few years ago I moved to a new city and found myself at endless "networking mixers" that felt more like a speed-dating marathon for business cards. I wanted something simpler: a room where people showed up because they actually cared about the same thing.

That idea became Link & Social. Today we help hosts design small, intentional gatherings — board-game nights, creative workshops, founder dinners, neighborhood hikes — where the conversation starts itself and the connections last long after the event ends.

Host and promote your own event today.
