Some no longer go to an office every day. Some have turned to remote work or freelancing. Others are building their own projects, content, or brands. And a few, while still holding a regular job, are quietly mapping out a different life. 城市夜幕缓缓降临 我们在外滩一线江畔相聚 窗外是流动的光影 与百年建筑交织的天际线 窗内是一场关于自由、创造力 与商业可能性的真实交流 As night falls, we gather in the bar on the Bund. Outside, light dances across the skyline and century-old buildings. Inside, real conversations happen: about freedom, creativity, and what's possible in business. 在轻松微醺的氛围里，聊聊： 如果不上班，你真正想过怎样的生活？ 什么样的工作方式让你更自由？ AI时代，未来的工作还会是什么样？ 一个人，也可以成为一家公司吗？ 为什么越来越多人开始重新定义成功？ 人与人之间的距离 不再仅由标签决定 而由共鸣开启 Over a drink and a relaxed vibe, we talk about: what life would you actually want without a job? What way of working makes you feel free? What will work look like in the AI era? Can one person run their own company? Why are so many people redefining success? 也许，你会在这里遇见那些正在创造另一种生活方式的人。外滩的夜色很长，值得和一个有意思的人，慢慢喝一杯。我们届时见！ Maybe you'll meet someone here who's already living a different kind of life. The night is long, which is worth a slow drink with someone interesting. See you then! 参与人群： 我们汇聚来自不同领域、不同阶段的人： 创业者、创始人 内容创作者、博主、自媒体人 投资人、VC、PE、家办 投行、金融从业者、资产管理人 公司中高管、企业决策者 品牌主理人、时尚、设计、创意行业从业者 AI、科技、互联网、跨境、新兴行业人士 自由职业者、数字游民、财务自由人 无论你正在创造、表达、投资、寻找机会，还是连接资源，这里都可能遇见与你同频的人 ATTENDEES: This evening, we gather people from different fields and stages: entrepreneurs, founders, content creators, bloggers, influencers, investors, VCs, PEs, family offices, investment bankers, finance professionals, asset managers, senior executives, corporate decision-makers, brand owners, those in fashion, design, and creative industries, people in AI, tech, internet, cross-border, and emerging sectors, as well as freelancers, digital nomads, and the FIRE seekers. Whether you are creating, expressing, investing, seeking opportunities, or connecting with resources, you may meet someone here who resonates with you. 🍸 氛围空间 The Venue 活动选址于外滩核心地段的东方壹号，拥有一线江景视野。窗外是流动的光影与百年建筑的轮廓，陆家嘴的天际线在夜色中渐次亮起，构成极具辨识度的城市景观。酒店品牌来自源自欧洲的生活方式品牌 MaxX，延续百年德意志酒店集团的待客传统，将「新奢主义」融入空间体验之中。历史与当代在此交汇，形成一种沉稳而优雅的氛围，让社交回归本身的质感。 The event will be held at mhub in a prime Bund location, with uninterrupted river views. Outside, historic silhouettes and the Lujiazui skyline light up gradually, forming one of Shanghai’s most iconic city scenes. The venue is part of MaxX, a European lifestyle brand from a century-old German hotel group, bringing a modern interpretation of “new luxury” into the space.

👉 **To join:** Please add Daisy on WeChat at **daisy00233** **We conduct all discussions over WeChat only.** Hello, my name is Daisy Wen. I studied English Literature as an undergraduate and later completed an LLB with the University of London. Beyond academics, I have a long-standing fascination with Chinese tea culture. In China, tea is far more than a beverage. It is deeply woven into history, daily life, etiquette, art, and philosophy. Even the Japanese tea ceremony traces its roots back to tea traditions of the Tang Dynasty. I am beginning to organize small, relaxed visits to tea farms for those who are genuinely curious about tea — how it is grown, harvested, processed, and appreciated. If you enjoy meaningful cultural experiences and good conversation over a proper cup of tea, I am forming a WeChat group for like-minded friends. Let us meet for a cuppa and see where the journey takes us.

Get ready creative writers! Inkwell is proud to announce Sunday Scribbles, our latest event for the Shanghai writing community. Sunday Scribbles is a low stress gathering for your Sunday afternoon creative writing. Join us to work, chat, and write to your heart's content. (Mostly write, though). Add Ryan (WechatID: texaswriter) to figure out where we are meeting this week and to ask any questions. I don't keep Meetup very up to date and everything Inkwell does is organized through wechat groups, so even if the number of attendees is low, there's likely an event still going on. Add Ryan, and you can join the wechat group where everything is happening. Some Frequently Asked Questions: What do we do here?: Mostly write and work quietly with some chatting What to bring?: Something to work on What we don't do?: Edit things for you, serve as writing consultants What does it cost?: Free, but please order something to support the venue. What is Inkwell?: There's a lot of information about the workshop located on the website: www.inkwell.asia. Meet Writing Workshop veterans and other Workshoppers for the latest info on writing prompts and activities. It's also the perfect chance to make the Sunday night deadline for that week's Writing Workshop. Sunday Scribbles is organized by Paula Willis who has been in Shanghai since early 2018 and a member of the writing group since fall 2019. Bring something to write with and we'll see you there!

I will organize a go meeting on every sunday night near nanjing east road. The cafe is nice and i will bring one board with me at the first meeting. Beginners are welcome. I will show the basic rules. Do suggest you add my wechat 864324659 and I can know your levels to find opponents.

Monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners. One specific topic, one to three actions you can run this week. You can be the best at what you do and still be invisible. If local buyers cannot find you, the phone does not ring. Marketing Monday Lunch + Learn is a monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners focused on building relationships, local networking, and local marketing. Every kind of local business welcome. No pitch round, no pressure, no upsell. **This month** Most local businesses pick one or two places to be visible and call it good. The result is inconsistent calls and a feeling that marketing is not working. We will walk through the three places every local business needs to show up, plus the fourth place most owners ignore that quietly produces the warmest leads. **What to expect** Doors open at noon. Order lunch and drinks at the cafe counter or bring your own. You get real conversation with other local owners and a focused marketing lesson. You leave knowing people and with one to three actions to run that week. The room is reserved through 1:30 PM. **Who this is for** Any local business owner who wants clearer marketing direction and real local relationships. Service businesses, retail, home services, professional services, online owners building local presence, anyone serious about being part of the Columbus business community. **Not the right fit if** You are here to pitch the room or recruit for an MLM. **Details** * Second Monday of every month * 12:00 to 1:30 PM * Good Cafe Easton, 4400 Easton Commons, Ste 150, Columbus, OH 43219 * Order lunch and drinks at the counter when you arrive * Free to attend, RSVP required, space is limited **About the host** Rita Suzanne is a local marketing strategist and the founder of Local Marketing Method. She runs Visibility is Profitability, the membership where local business owners build the system that keeps their phone ringing. Learn more at learnlocalmarketing.com.
