🍽 FOMO Berlin 💙 FOMO Supper Club 2nd Edition in Camps Bay 🥗| 27.01 - 3.02

Weekly newsletter keeping you up to date on the coolest events for tech & culture in Berlin

Hey Berliners! 🍽

Are you ready for this? I can feel it—Berlin has woken up from its winter hibernation, and the city is buzzing with events! Don’t forget, Berlin Fashion Week is happening this weekend 💙. If you've ever wanted to catch a runway show, now’s your chance!

Meanwhile, we’re still soaking up the sun in Cape Town! Last week, we launched our FOMO Supper Club at the stunning FOMO Villa in Camps Bay, and tonight we’re hosting the second edition.

Big news! We’re organizing a Padel Tournament on February 9th in Cape Town. If you’re in town, save the date! Plus, I’ll be connecting with many familiar faces at the Founder Conference from Wednesday to Friday.

As always, more details about our events in Cape Town will be shared in our FOMO Cape Town WhatsApp group. Keep your eyes open and join us for more evenings filled with inspiration and impact!
