Small tables in TokyoCome alone.
Come alone.
Everyone else is coming alone too.
Chum seats six to eight people around one table for an evening built to be easy to walk into. You book your seat on your own. So does everybody else at it.

your seatHow an evening works
Four steps, and only one of them happens on a screen.
Tell us who you are← the screen bit
A few honest questions about what you enjoy and who you would get on with. Three minutes, and there is no profile for anyone to browse.
We seat you at a small table
Six to eight people, matched on your answers, at a beginner-friendly activity in your part of Tokyo.
Show up on your own
A host starts the introductions, so nobody is left standing at the edge. Bring yourself, that is the whole list.
Keep the people you clicked with
Afterwards you privately say who you would like to see again. We only pass it on when it is mutual.
The kind of thing we mean
Things worth doing, chosen so the talking is easy.
A few examples to give you the idea. Dates, venues and plenty more formats are still in the works.
To be clear
What Chum is not.
Not a dating app
Reconnections here are about friendship, and they are only ever shared when both people choose the same thing.
Not a networking room
No pitches, no business cards, no going round the table saying what you do for work.
Not a feed to scroll
Your answers help us seat you well. Your profile is not public and nobody can browse it.
The first tables
Twenty seats in the first Tokyo group.
Answer a few questions and we will hold one of them for you while we put the right table together.
