There's Soho House if you want to hangout with "influzenzas" in Mumbai. Mostly media/Insta/Utube people.

Which club membership / loyalty programme do you find useful? There are some old school ones like Rotary, MCA, Koramangala club, gymkhana etc. Is there anything that’s useful to be a part of?

Club membership- Grapevine

I bought a yearlong membership last year but barely went for around a month. Not fully sure if I should buy one again. I have regret of wasting that money and not planning to burn it again. If anyone has a spare membership for some months and is willing to sell, please DM or comment. Maybe it might help me burn some fat and not money. Thanks in advance.

Location: Indiranagar, Bengaluru

Cult elite membership wanted

Software Developer

In the Blr since a month, in the Marathalli area.

Not any friends nearby.
First time out of home town.

Not any friends in the company as well, mostly I sit alone just casual hi hellos. Don't drink or party hence just stuck in PG.

I want to network with people and find interesting startups.
Can even start doing something on the side.

Let's connect if you are around ?

Most of us on Grapevine, working in corporate sector might make decent chunk of money if we keep grinding for a decade or two but very few of us would have the social capital (or as they say “networking” in our corporate jargon).
Increasingly realising that the society respects the business owners or govt officers more than any senior leader in an IT firm. There is no social recognition for corporate folks. It might not be relevant for young folks as they still have some residual social recognition of the family for now, but what would happen after a decade or two. Most of the corporate “friends” are no longer in touch except for very rare ones. How does one build a social circle after 10-20 yrs in corporate? Would like to hear from folks above 40 yrs if they’ve had similar thoughts and how are they managing?
Also, What are some ways one can start building social circle overtime while doing a corporate job?

PS: I am referring social capital as having a certain level of stature in society alongwith deep connections with some people living around you who can help you in need or can expect something from you. This is different from LinkedIn networking where primary expectation is referrals.

Service Class has no social capital

My father is an officer in a PSU. Not sure what "respect" you are talking about because from what I've seen, PSU workers have a social capital only in their colony/settlement. Apart from that it doesn't really matter for outsiders.  
 Business owners are respected only if he/she is really really successful. Otherwise how often we see someone respecting a normal shop owner?? 
  
 To build your own social capital, participate in tech talks/workshops. Spend time mentoring folks. Participate in society functions/apartments as others have mentioned.

Thoughts on club memberships? Are you already a member? What is good about these? Why would you consider one?

Price of prestige

Most of the folks at cult gyms affiliated ones play at a leisurely pace, would love to find groups to play at a slightly serious level. What are the best options ?  Based near Sadhashiv Nagar/Malleswaram. Happy to explore options 5-7kms radius. Would be happy to get some help.

New to Bangalore, what are the Good competitive and serious club to join to play badminton in Bangalore.

I've been sitting at home due to wfh option since 2 years. I'm the only person from the team in Hyderabad location, so I don't have a seat in the office. I'm given the freedom. And unsurprisingly have no social interactions. A couple of friends keep meeting once in a fortnight but that's it. Any places that you would recommend (non-partying spaces) to hangout and meet new people, make meaningful connections?

Best hobby club spaces in the city?

Hi,
I am a 2023 graduate and currently working in a product based startup in Indiranagar. When I came to Bangalore a few months ago, it was all fun and exciting. I still love my work (working in multiple tech stacks). But somehow life outside the work has become somewhat boring. I do go on bike ride trips but again can't go every weekend.

I play badminton and cricket sometimes but still feel bored sometimes.

I don't go to clubs as I don't drink and smoke. Would love if you folks can suggest something?
