In the last week a complete bustle of activities has taken place.

Stoa has arrived & set up it’s flag in Hustle Central aka Bengaluru!

An activity planned perfectly to match our arrival at Homebase was the Dosa Meetup at Cubbon Park on Sunday.

If you were in the city, we hope you came, and had a good time - In true Stoa fashion we are dedicating this issue to the attendees of the Dosa Meetup, and are so pleased with the welcome we received!! 🎊

Thankyou for coming out to meet, greet & interact with not only us, but over 200 people that showed up with individuals from the following worlds:

  • Tech Twitter

  • The Startup world

  • The Creator Economy world

  • Facilitators at Stoa

  • Solopreneurs

  • Coaches from Stoa, and the biggest ever cheerleaders,

  • Our Fellows.

@StoaHQ and @peakbengaluru, thanks for the brilliantly organised Dosa Party! First offline event in Bangalore since the pandemic. Absolutely loved networking whilst munching on crisp Dosas and soft Idlis. Looking forward to the next one! #DosaWithStoa

Here’s a small, small glimpse into what it was like to be at!

But absolutely no photographic evidence of what the Sunday was, will do justice to the fact that the energy in that tiny corner of Cubbon Park was contagious and highly, highly palpable.

Nothing replicates the feeling of meeting like-minded individuals that you look upto, admire & learn from!
