South Asian Singles Mixer | Toronto | Valentine Edition | Ages 25-40
**Book Tickets on Eventbrite**
**[Ticket Link](https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/south-asian-singles-mixer-toronto-valentine-edition-ages-25-40-tickets-1979108631192?aff=meetup)**
## Valentine’s Evening for Singles
This Valentine’s season, step into an elegant social experience designed for singles who value meaningful conversations, refined settings, and effortless connections.
This is **not** a speed-dating event.
There are no timers, no forced pairings, and no pressure. Just great energy, guided social moments, and plenty of time to mingle naturally.
### **Mixer Entry Criteria — Who This Event is For**
To attend, you must meet at least **3 of** the following:
* Earning at least $75K annually
* Seeking a serious, long-term relationship
* Hold a university or college degree/diploma
* Fluent in English and enjoy engaging in conversations
* Socially confident, with experience in meaningful relationships
## Dress Code: Formal Attire
Dress to impress — polished, confident, and date-ready.
**Men:** Dress shirt with slacks or dark denim, dress shoes (blazer optional)
**Women:** Winter dress, pantsuit, chic top with slacks, or a formal jumpsuit with heels, boots, or dressy flats
## Event Schedule
### **6:00 – 7:00 PM \| Welcome & Icebreaker**
Arrive, grab your drink, and settle into the evening.
We’ll start with a light, fun icebreaker game (**Never Have I Ever**) to break the ice and get conversations flowing — relaxed, playful, and pressure-free.
### **7:00 – 9:00 PM \| Open Mingling & Conversations**
Enjoy open mingling in a warm, elevated atmosphere. Move at your own pace, meet new people organically, and connect through real conversations.
Our experienced hosts will be present throughout the evening to:
* Help spark conversations
* Make introductions if needed
* Ensure a smooth, welcoming experience for everyone
No scripts. No awkward moments. Just a genuine connection.
## Coming Solo? Perfect.
Most people do.
Coming alone is part of the experience — you’ll feel welcomed from the moment you walk in.
Want backup? Bring a friend for moral support (even if they’re not single).
**Support Ticket (Non-Singles)**
Friends joining for vibes only will get a different-colored wristband and enjoy the social atmosphere without joining singles-only moments. Think *wingperson energy*, not third-wheel awkwardness 😉
## A Curated Experience
While this is not a formal matchmaking event, select guests may be invited to explore deeper connections with our team following the evening.
Every detail has been thoughtfully designed to create a relaxed, elegant, and enjoyable Valentine’s night.
📲 **Follow us on Instagram: @[southasiansocials](https://www.instagram.com/southasiansocials/ "https://www.instagram.com/southasiansocials/")**
Limited spots available.
Dress well. Show up open-minded. Let the night unfold.

Relaxing with Art, Chill Convos and Making New Friends
*Unwind, get creative, and connect with cool people.*
Looking for a calm space to do some art, have meaningful (or silly) convos, and meet new friends in the city? This is your spot.
I’ll be bringing **colouring pages and markers** for anyone who just wants to show up and relax. You're also totally welcome to bring whatever creative activity helps *you* unwind — think **sketchpads, mini canvases and paint, journals, clay sculpting, wire bending, model building kits, and collage supplies**.
We’ll hang out, make art, and enjoy chill conversations in a cozy, no-pressure environment. No experience or talent required — just bring yourself and whatever helps you feel creative and calm.
**✦ What to Bring (optional):**
* Any relaxing art or activity you enjoy
**✦ I’ll provide:**
* Colouring pages, markers, and good vibes
**Where to Meet (MADO Cafe at the Food Hall inside The Well):**
* The easiest way to get to the venue is to make your way to La Plume restaurant or The Dorset restaurant and turn towards the statue then take the stairs to the lower level.
* Shoppers will be on the right and across from Shoppers will be an entrance to The Well's food court.
* Make a left and you should see the long tables and MADO cafe.
* **We'll meet at the long tables in front of MADO Cafe**
Come solo or bring a friend — this is all about slowing down, making connections, and enjoying a creative evening together ✨

FREE Spanish, English, and French Oral Conversational Classes4 Adults!!
\*These classes are not a language exchange, but instead are meant to be a step in between so that students feel confident maintaining in depth and grammatically correct oral conversations outside of class\*
\***Meetup event numbers only tend to show new students registering and do not include returning students attending class.** **Per class, there is an average of 7 students.** The first 2 classes are free and then only cost between $18 and $36 depending on which type of class you want to continue with\*
These French, English (For Spanish and French speakers only), and Spanish classes are primarily meant for adults who are travellers, or who are planning to live in a French, English, or Spanish-speaking country. The classes are primarily oral-based through guided conversations. They will teach you how to handle conversations in situations such as **"Going to the Convenience Store"**, **"Making Plans"**, **"Negotiating Prices"**, and **"Going out for a Drink"**. To ensure that students get used to using the language automatically, students will learn to maintain contextual conversations with timing before moving on to the next lesson.

Connected Westerville Night of Networking!
Connected Westerville Night of Networking flips the script on networking, with surprises and connections that'll make you say, "Who knew networking could be this much fun?!"
Data & Analytics Wednesday - Compensation Data
**People Analytics 101: Making Sense of Compensation Data**
Compensation data is one of the most widely used and widely misunderstood forms of people analytics.
The session will cover where compensation data comes from, including market pricing data, internal payroll data, and benchmarking sources, and how companies think about structuring and analyzing that information. We will explore how compensation data is leveraged to set salary ranges, manage internal equity, support hiring and retention, and align pay with business strategy. A portion of the session will address common data challenges and limitations, such as market noise, inconsistent job matching, and incomplete datasets, while keeping the primary focus on practical use rather than technical depth.
The session will also look ahead at where the space is going, including the growing impact of pay transparency laws, expanding pay equity requirements, and emerging regulations in the US and Europe that require organizations to report on gender and pay gaps. The goal is to give attendees a clear mental model for how compensation analytics works today and why getting it right is becoming increasingly critical.
(note: we are back at Rev1 this month!)
**About Our Speaker**
[Alex Moore](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexscottmoore/) is the founder of [Moore Cooperative](https://moorecooperative.com/), where he advises organizations on compensation strategy, pay equity, and people analytics.

Alex lives in Granville, Ohio and has three little kiddos.
