Andrea Piacquadio

Had a Saturday morning coffee with two other indie filmmakers, and we lost track of time completely. Three hours flew by. There's something special about connecting with people who share your exact niche. Makes me wonder why we even go to massive networking events

Sarah Clearwater

Coming from a smaller city, moving to San Francisco was overwhelming. The tech meetups here are massive, and I'd just grab peoples Linkedins and leave. I hosted one of the first dinners on Cielo and met three other women in tech who also love rock climbing - changed everything. Two months later and we meet up every weekend to climb
