where the real work is done

Letter from theeditor
DEAR READERS,
San Francisco is a vibrant city brimming with some of the best food, drinks, views, and spaces in the world! Each year, about half a million international visitors come to marvel at the wonders of this coastal paradise When you and your team gather anywhere around the city, there's no reason that it should be anything short of refreshing, awe-inspiring, and unforgettable.
The secret to any city, and especially SF, is its people. The makers, the creatives, the chefs, the mixologists, and more. I've taken some time to compile and curate some of our favorite "turnkey" happy hour-style events to inspire you and your team to ditch the usual and build greater connections Think of this as an inspiration and a guide as you look at your year ahead. Our goal is to help you plan a full calendar at least 6 months in advance, within a matter of days!
