Who We Are

Closer isn't just about showing up — it's about what happens when you do.

Our team is behind the scenes designing the flow, hosting the moments, and curating the kinds of experiences people actually want to return to.

We're planners, facilitators, and conversation-starters. But mostly, we're people who believe connection gets easier when someone's quietly guiding the way.

What We Value

Curation over chaos

We don't throw things out on the calendar just to fill it. Every plan — whether it's a dinner, hike, book club — gets care.

Facilitation, not orchestration

Our events aren't scripts. They're just structured enough to help people connect without the forced small talk, or "go around the room" energy.

Opt-in connection

Everyone feels safe: yes. That makes a difference. There's no pressure, just people who are open to something new.

Why We Do It

We started Closer because we knew how hard it could be to meet new people as an adult — even in a big city, even when you're ready. We didn't want more apps or loud events. We wanted thoughtful plans, with people who came for the same reason.

So we built what we wished existed: a structure that makes it easier to say yes, show up, and feel like you belong.
