About this event
Good conversations change how you think, and a shared table changes how those conversations happen. DINING CLUB | Marco Onorato - Marketing Espresso brings people together in Torino for an evening that blends food, community, and real exchange in a setting that feels more personal than a typical networking event. If you like meeting thoughtful people without the stiffness of a formal business format, this is the kind of night that earns a place on your calendar. It is designed for people who want a more relaxed, human way to connect around ideas, work, and shared interests. About the Event At its core, this is a dining-focused community gathering: an in-person evening built around conversation, connection, and the natural rhythm that comes from sitting down together over food and drinks. The event title signals a meeting point between the social energy of a dining club and the perspective associated with Marketing Espresso, making this especially appealing to people who enjoy exchanging ideas with others who are curious, engaged, and open to new relationships. Rather than forcing interaction through overly structured icebreakers or a packed program, this format creates space for genuine discussion. The setting in Torino gives the evening a local, grounded feel, with the focus on being present, meeting the people around you, and having the kind of conversations that are hard to replicate in a crowded conference hall or a fast online call. This event sits at the intersection of community, dining, food-and-drink, and networking. That mix matters. It means you can come for professional connection, for interesting conversation, for the pleasure of a well-spent evening, or for all of the above. What to Expect Expect an evening that moves through a simple but effective flow: arrival, settling in, meeting the room, and then letting conversation deepen as the night unfolds. The dinner setting naturally makes it easier to speak with people in a way that feels less transactional and more real. You can likely expect the experience to include: A warm in-person welcome in Torino, with time to arrive and get oriented Casual introductions and conversation starters that help people connect without pressure Shared table conversation shaped by the people in the room, their work, interests, and perspectives Food-and-drink as the social anchor, giving the evening a relaxed pace and easy flow Organic networking that comes from spending real time together rather than exchanging quick introductions Because the event is framed as a dining club, the social format is part of the value, not just the backdrop. Sitting down together tends to create better questions, better listening, and more memorable conversations. You are not just passing through a room full of people; you are participating in a shared experience. For attendees who appreciate substance, that matters. It gives space for discussion that can move beyond surface-level small talk into practical ideas, shared challenges, local connections, and the kind of follow-up conversations that continue after the event ends. Why Attend This event is valuable because it offers a different quality of interaction. Plenty of events promise networking; far fewer create the conditions for people to actually talk in a meaningful way. A dining format lowers the barriers. It becomes easier to ask better questions, share what you are working on, and learn from the people around you. If you work in or around creative, entrepreneurial, community, or marketing spaces, an evening like this can be especially useful. You may leave with a new contact, a fresh perspective, a possible collaboration, or simply a stronger sense of connection to the local scene in Torino. Not every result needs to be immediate for the evening to be worth it. There is also value in the atmosphere itself. Good events do not always need a stage, a heavy agenda, or a long list of speakers. Sometimes the strongest format is a table, a well-chosen group, and enough time for the conversation to become interesting. That is what makes a dining club format appealing: it prioritizes quality of exchange over quantity of interactions. By the end of the night, you should expect to have spent time with people you would not normally meet in your day-to-day routine, while also enjoying a setting that feels welcoming rather than performative. That combination is rare, and it is exactly why evenings like this stand out. Practical Details This is an in-person event in Torino, Italy, so it is best suited to attendees who can be there physically and want the benefits of face-to-face connection. The local format is part of the point: showing up matters, and the value comes from being in the room. The event takes place on Tuesday, March 24 at 7:30 PM GMT+1, which makes it well-positioned as an evening gathering after the workday. That timing supports a more relaxed social atmosphere, with enough space to settle in and engage rather than rushing through a daytime slot. A few practical expectations to keep in mind: Plan for an evening format, not a quick drop-in Come ready for conversation as much as attendance Expect the setting to center on dining and interpersonal exchange Bring the mindset of someone who wants to listen, contribute, and connect naturally If you are deciding whether to come, the best question is simple: do you want a more thoughtful, human evening built around food, conversation, and meeting people who care about similar things? If the answer is yes, this is likely a strong fit.
