Temporary Title
Happy Hour for Founders & Creatives
SHOW AND TELL
Temporary Title is a gathering of creatives, founders and makers of all sorts to inspire each other.
Each month, we gather at a Lisbon kiosk to share our latest crazy projects. Sometimes it's a doodle, othertimes it's a developed prototype. Bring anything that shows an idea... Swap ideas with creatives, founders and other curious people.
more than networking...
We got bored of cookie‑cutter events... and believe the best way to get to know someone is through their passions. Temporary Title sparks cross‑pollination to inject freshness into your startup, creative project, or just your heart & mind.
Expect chilled drinks... easy conversations... and a dash of serendipity.

Over 12 years of inspiration
We've been organizing these happy hours since 2013 in Shanghai, China and found it's such a great way to meet the other creatives in the city.
One day, a few people coincidently brought prototypes and suddenly everyone gathered around to check it out. That's how Temporary Title was born... organically, over drinks and shared curiosity!

FAQs
You might be wondering...
What can I bring?
Anything that shows the seed of an idea:
- napkin sketch,
- website outline,
- doodle,
- app wireframe,
- draft of a poem,
- 3D model,
- powerpoint slideshow,
The weirder the better! The point is to SHOW your thinking, get feedback and be inspired!
Is it really not a pitch?
Exactly! It’s show‑and‑tell, not Shark Tank.
Do I have to Share / Present?
Nope… just bring your smile and be prepared to give feedback, offer help if others in your small group ask!
If you're unsure, bring the project anyway and see if the vibe is right (you don't have to share).
Can I turn up late?
Try for 7 pm to catch the small group round… after 8 pm it’s pure mingle.
Will there be Wi‑Fi or screens?
Unlikely, this is an informal gathering in a public place. Be as self-reliant as possible. Bring offline files or screenshots just in case.
Who shows up?
We've organized hundreds of happy hours over the years. Each time, it's a mix of ecclectic weirdos, idealistic makers, and passionate founders, of all ages... and we wouldn't want it any other way. If you're one of these beautiful people who've we've run across, thank you for sharing that 🔥 with us!
