how it works
Every Monday, you'll get an email introducing you to another member of the community, someone we think you'll have an interesting chat with. We'll suggest a time and a place but leave it with you to figure out the details.
Our members come from the most creative places.
our story
To hold each other accountable to their own side projects, friends Caomhán & Sam began meeting a couple of mornings a week in coffee shops around Dublin. People seemed to like the simple idea and soon a the side project breakfast club was born.
“Side projects tell you more than any CV or portfolio. When looking to hire people I’m looking for two things, talent and side projects.”
our favourite spots
The side project was founded on a few simple staples, namely great food, great conversation and great coffee. To ensure this tradition lives on we curate a list of venues in each city that we suggest to our members.
