On Thursday, January 22, Founders Drinks returns with a Special Edition, in collaboration with ArtDock at StartDock Singel.

Same relaxed founders vibe.

Same low entry,

No-pressure meetup.

With one extra ingredient: art.

Expect a laid-back evening where founders, creatives, and the StartDock community come together in a coworking space transformed into a living gallery.

Catch up with familiar faces, meet like-minded ambitious entrepreneurs, and turn a casual meetup into an inspiring social evening you actually look forward to.

No pitches.

No panels.

No name tags.

Just founders hanging out.

Good food.

Good company.

And good conversation.

What’s not to like? 🤩

What This Is (and Isn’t)

✅ A casual founders meetup

✅ Drinks, food, and a great atmosphere

✅ Social networking with like-minded people

About the Host

Hi, I’m Shorombo Mooij, High-Performance Life Coach and founder of Maxyourlife.Today.

For years, I was looking for a Friday drink I actually liked. Too often, the conversations weren’t engaging, the setting felt uninspiring, and the drinks didn’t excite me. I felt there had to be a better way — a better experience.

That’s how this initiative came about.

I had a vision for a Friday drink I’d genuinely enjoy:

Good food.

Nice venue.

Interesting people.

Simple.

I host this meetup because I want it to exist 😂

I enjoy meeting ambitious, inspiring entrepreneurial spirits — so I created a space to have fun, connect, and enjoy great conversations.

If you’re a founder and this sounds like a nice way to spend your Friday — you’re invited.

It’s free, informal, and low-key.

RSVP, join us for a drink, and see who you meet.
