How we run it

Four principles, none negotiable

Verified, not vouched for
Every member's revenue is confirmed with their finance lead before a place is offered. Reputation gets an application read. It does not get anyone in.
Small on purpose
Sixteen to a table is the size at which everyone speaks and nobody performs. We would rather run two tables than one large room.
Nothing for sale
No sponsors, no vendor tables, no data sold, no upsell. The membership fee is the only money that changes hands with us.
Discretion by default
Membership is not announced. There is no public directory. What is said at the table stays attributed to nobody.

Where does Limelightlist meet?
