Not for Profit
Our Salons are not designed for profit; any potential revenue from ticket sales is reinvested into hosting future events. If our ticket prices exceed your budget for any reason, please email us, and we will accommodate you.

Conversation over Presentation
You will not find screen-supported keynotes at our Salons. We believe in the power of stories to spark conversations that bring genuine depth and relevance. Joining us means becoming a participant in the conversation. This value informs our style of facilitation.

Chatham House Rule… or discretion if you will
The best conversations are those that create a safe space for participants to open up. While we are not overly formal about the Chatham House Rule, we consider it a helpful guideline for maintaining genuine relevance during our gatherings.

Gathering locally, thinking planetary
Our chosen language is English regardless of the Salon’s location (unless everyone in the room shares the same native language). We aim to broaden perspectives beyond the local, making it an inclusive choice to engage with the international community.

The Cheese Rule
If you join us for one of our Salons, you’ll be asked to bring a piece of cheese to share. This ritual has been a core tradition since the very beginning of our series.
