Networking is totally broken.

Everyone deep down knows it.

You walk into a room.
Grab a drink.
Exchange a few business cards.
Leave with a handful of LinkedIn connections you’ll probably never speak to again.

So we ran an experiment.

No stage.
No panels.
No name badges.

Just a padel court. 🎾 

That’s how Courtside Conversations was born.

Founders.
Lawyers.
Investors.
Operators.

Playing sport first. Talking second.

Something interesting happens when people meet this way.

Egos drop.
Conversations become real.
Connections form naturally.

Our first event in Dubai proved the concept.

The energy was different.
The conversations were better.
We even hit the press!

Now Whitney Williams and I are building what comes next.

More cities.
More courts.
More conversations.

And we’re looking to partner with a few brands who want to be part of something different.
