Deep Conversations Dinner

Brussels: Thursday, 20 April 2023

The Deep Conversations Dinner has returned and you are invited!

Do you like the idea of meeting someone from a different background, skipping the small talk and immediately diving into a deep, thought-provoking conversation - while enjoying a healthy meal? If so, you'll love our Deep Conversation Dinner!

The concept is simple. After a brief introduction, you will be paired up with someone you don't know and given a set of thoughtful questions to ask each other over dinner. After ordering your meal, you sit down at a table and choose a question to ask your conversation partner and ask. You can follow up with more questions and take the conversation in any direction you wish and are comfortable with. Then, your conversation partner asks you the same question. Continue this way for about 90 minutes -- and you and your conversation partner can continue your conversation afterwards, if you like. 

After about 90 minutes, we will gather together again for a debriefing and feedback session.

The Deep Conversations Dinner will be held at Kamilou Arts-Loi near the centre of Brussels and the EU district. The restaurant offers a selection of dishes, including vegetarian and vegan, as well as meat and fish. They also have a selection of alcoholic and nonalcoholic drinks. Please order at least a drink and ideally a meal or a snack.

Please tell your friends about Deep Conversation Dinners

If you have participated in a Deep Conversation Dinner and enjoyed it, please tell friends about it. The success of the Deep Conversation Dinners is dependent upon having a wide variety of participants (so we can pair you with a conversation partner who is different from you). The more new people who join us, the better the conversations.

Notes

The Deep Conversation Dinner will be overseen by Imagination Club founders, Jeffrey Baumgartner and Andy Whittle.

Deep conversations is inspired by Oxford University professor Theodor Zeldin's Conversation Dinners and Vienna Coffee House Conversations (also inspired by Professor Zeldin's concept).
