PORTLAND | FRIEND Pitches + Bar Takeover | at Jackie's | Free

  • Jackie's 930 Southeast Sandy Boulevard Portland, Oregon, 97214 United States (map)

Meet a Mutual is our take on the trend where single people get presented to a live audience to get them dates! In this special edition, we're teaming up with Open* Invite to host pitches to help people make friends, network, find romance and MORE!

All you do is make a profile for your friend in a deck and then present it in person to a party of people hosted by a Meeting Mutuals & Open* Invite - in the Jackie's stadium room.

Here's how it works:

  • You, the friend, present your fabulous friend who you think is awesome - highlighting their personality, quirks, interests, and what makes them a great person - in a live presentation on a projector screen.

  • The presentation should be lighthearted and witty, kind of like a mini sales pitch or a dating profile, but with a personal touch.

  • It happens in real life! In front of an audience!

  • Include photos, videos, or fun facts to make the pitch more compelling.

How to participate:

  • Email us: Send us a Google Slides Deck (no PowerPoint, please!) pitching your single friend (with their permission) by June 20th. We will select a few Meet a Mutual decks to present at this event.

  • We'll let you know by June 20th if you've been selected as a presenter. We'll also have a waitlist just in case we have time for more presentations - we'll let you know if you should be prepared.

  • Attend Meet-A-Mutual on June 25th: Show up and check in with the Host before 7:30pm.

  • Social: Promote the event on your socials! Invite your mutuals out to support you and your friend :)

Agenda:

  • 8:00pm: Arrive at Jackie's and pick up your stickers that tell everyone if you're single and who you're looking to date (men, women, or everyone)

  • 8:30pm: Presentations start

  • 9:00pm: Break for drink/bathroom/socializing

  • 9:15pm: Presentations continue

  • 10:00-11:00pm: Social hour - go say hi to the singles being pitched and hand off a You're Cute card if you want to connect with them after.

If you want to be a presenter, and present a friend to our live audience: email your presentation (Google Slide decks ONLY) to hello@meetingmutuals.com by June 20th. We will review it, and if selected, we'll let you know by June 20th.
