“We need to bring back the authentic social aspect of our lives as creatives.”
We weren't built to network.
— Oye Olowu, Founder of WAIN.
WAIN. was founded with an idea (and a lot of love) that has grown into a mission: to create spaces where creatives could experience the refreshing feeling of building real relationships within different industries without the stress of “networking”. Creating a space where creatives come to grow, have a good time, and have life-changing conversations.
You deserve to be a part of a community of creatives, where you can be yourself. Where the conversations get deeper, and the relationships are establishing careers. We're building the professional landscape we all deserved from the start — and we want you in it.

I started this WAIN. on a mission — to end the draining, transactional culture of networking.
It was keeping the most creative and driven emerging leaders from discovering, owning, collaborating, and using the gifts that make us unstoppable in our careers.
