Vous cherchez quelqu’un avec qui construire votre startup ? Voici le 4eme meetup **Find a Cofounder** — une rencontre simple entre builders qui recherchent activement le bon partenaire.

Selon la taille du groupe et l’énergie du moment, nous pourrons : Garder un format ouvert et fluide Organiser de petites conversations tournantes Ou tester des idées de mise en relation légère Ce meetup est une expérimentation : apprendre, ajuster et construire ensemble le bon format. Quelques petits points pour nous aider à organiser : • Si vous ne pouvez finalement pas venir, merci de **retirer votre RSVP sur Meetup** afin que nous ayons une estimation plus précise. • Si vous venez **avec un ami**, ce serait super qu’il **s’inscrive aussi sur Meetup**, pour que nous puissions mieux anticiper le nombre de participants. 📍 Lieu : **Capo,** 32 Rue Saint-Sauveur, 75002 Paris Aidez-nous à rendre cet événement plus pertinent pour votre recherche de cofondateur en remplissant ce formulaire: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfgY38XnzrTZVWH52DCn7O456gmhCeEmBNEuLStNImtNItkXA/viewform?usp=sharing&ouid=100168643146130712392 Merci beaucoup et au plaisir de vous rencontrer ! *** Looking for someone to build your startup with? This is the 4th **Find a Cofounder** meetup — a simple gathering of builders who are actively looking for the right partner. No panels. No pitches. No forced speed dating. Just founders, aspiring cofounders, developers, product minds, and operators in the same room — intentionally. \*\*\* \#\# Who This Is For * You have an idea and need the right partner * You’re technical and want a business counterpart * You’re business/product-oriented and want a technical cofounder * You’re serious about building in the next months If you're just casually browsing or “networking,” this probably isn’t for you. \*\*\* \#\# What We’ll Do We’ll likely start with short introductions so everyone knows: * Who you are * What you’re building (or want to build) * What kind of cofounder you’re looking for From there, we’ll let conversations happen naturally — but intentionally. Depending on the group size and energy, we may: * Keep it open and fluid * Try small rotating conversations * Or experiment with lightweight matching ideas This meetup is about testing, learning, and building the right format together. \*\*\* Finding a cofounder shouldn’t be random. Let’s see what happens when the right people are in the same room. A couple of quick things to help us organize: • If you can no longer attend, please **remove your RSVP on Meetup** so we have a more accurate estimate. • If you’re planning to **bring a friend**, it would be great if they could **RSVP on Meetup as well**, so we can better anticipate the number of people. 📍 **Location: Capo,** 32 Rue Saint-Sauveur, 75002 Paris Help make this event more relevant to your search for a cofounder by filling this form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfgY38XnzrTZVWH52DCn7O456gmhCeEmBNEuLStNImtNItkXA/viewform?usp=sharing&ouid=100168643146130712392 Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Before leading teams, businesses, or projects, we first need to learn how to lead ourselves.

MIT Afterwork meeting Oct 2026

Deep Talk / In English

Let's have a weekly deep talk in an intimate Parisian café, share a drink and have a good time with like-minded, lovely and chill people. ☕ We're here to sip life in a childish, simple and non-serious way. When was the last time you had a meaningful conversation? Or deepened your relationship with someone in your life? It's not easy to have a deep conversation. While small talk, which is typically casual and light-hearted, can help break the ice, it may not necessarily help you form a deep, emotional connection with someone. Whether it's with your friends, family, colleagues or romantic partners, having meaningful conversations is important for creating strong bonds. "Meaningful conversations help us understand ourselves and those around us better. They involve sharing important aspects of ourselves and actively listening, validating and connecting with others." We believe that a happy and healthy life is built on beautiful relationships and that loneliness kills us. That's it. It's not the number of friends that counts, it's the quality of the relationship. ✅ This group is adressed to : ● People who want to build deep, genuine and caring relationships in a small group that looks the same, where they feel comfortable and emotionally safe to talk emotionally and get intimate about anything in their lives. ● Simple, loving, kind, hyper/sensitive and lovely people who spend a lot of time in their bubble thinking about the meaning of life, passionate about personal development, philosophy, meaningful conversations, debates .... ⛔ Please don't subscribe if : ● You don't see yourself in the group's aims and beliefs. ● You're travelling for a short period of time and don't live or intend to live in Paris. ● You are not sure if you will be able to come, please update your status to allow others on the waiting list to join. An absence without notice will result in an irrevocable ban. Progress : ● ❗ For reservations, I'll send you a private Meetup message at least 5 hours before the meeting to confirm your reservation. If I don't receive a reply 2 hours before the meeting, I will send you a second message to let you know that you will be replaced by someone on the waitlist. ● We keep the session small, cosy and relaxed in a quiet place, prioritising regularity to encourage intimacy, connection, listening and speaking. (\~ 5/6 people) ● On arrival, if you feel comfortable, you will be suggested to choose and associate several drawn Feelings and Needs cards to express how you really feel at the moment, to talk about ourselves and communicate effectively. ● The best way to make progress is to make the conversation easy and natural, with everyone making an effort to suggest and write down what you want to talk about. You can write down your favourite topics/questions before the meeting. The meeting is participative and invite everyone if you feel comfortable being a leader and a power of suggestion. Anyway, to keep the meeting running smoothly, I'll animate the meeting to make sure the conversation doesn't get wild or boring and I wouldn't hesitate to reframe people. In case of lack of inspiration we have a lot of deep conversation question card game which can help to find interesting questions. ● (Not compulsory) After the meeting we can finish in a nearby restaurant for those who wish to relax or continue our conversation. Advice for a good moment : ● Leave your ego and mask at home, we are not here to impress anyone but to be ourselves with our strength, weakness, pride and shame. Come with an open/deep/emotional/complex thought and vulnerability. ● Ask open-ended questions and invite the other person to describe what a situation was like for them or how they felt. ● Don't hesitate to be vulnerable and share information about yourself if needed. Consider sharing personal information first to gain the other person's trust. ● Adopt an attitude of curiosity and genuine interest in what the other person is saying. Be thoughtful and try to put yourself in the other person's shoes so that you can see things from their perspective. Be truthful, caring and honest. ● Listen actively and ask follow-up questions. ● Be empathetic and offer emotional validation so that they feel seen and heard. It is forbidden to judge, but try to understand. ● ⏱ Be aware of your speaking time for Equally Speak. ● Be aware never to provoke political or religious ideologies, but to accept differences of belief. Advice on non-violent communication can be given in the meeting to learn not to unintentionally hurt anyone when requested or needed. ● Remember to maintain a safe, and benevolent environment. People who are considered to be disruptive, problematic or simply not in tune with the energy of the group will not be allowed to return. Finally, we're hug-friendly !!!
