Networking in Singapore CBD — SEN Second Wednesdays at Duxton (Free Entry)
About the event
Wrapping up the work day in the CBD? Come unwind and meet interesting people over drinks at Goodbye Alibi, right in the heart of Duxton.
Every alternate month, the Singapore Entrepreneurs Network (SEN) brings its Second Wednesdays session to Duxton Road — one of Singapore's most vibrant dining and nightlife strips. It's an evening of easy conversation, no agenda, and no hard selling.
With over 20,000 members and 633 events hosted since 2005, SEN is one of Singapore's longest-running entrepreneur and business networking communities.
Who shows up The Duxton crowd is one of SEN's most eclectic. You'll find:
• Professionals and executives from the CBD unwinding after work • Entrepreneurs and business owners based in or passing through the city • Expats and foreign professionals building their Singapore network • Aspiring founders scoping out the business landscape • Investors and advisors
Whether you're deep into entrepreneurship or simply ambitious and curious, you'll find the conversation worthwhile.
What to expect No speeches, no pitches, no formal programme. Just good company in a relaxed pub setting. Goodbye Alibi is a cocktail bar, come ready to drink, talk, and meet people you wouldn't normally run into.
SEN events are known for being genuinely diverse and free of the polished, curated "tech founders only" atmosphere that defines most Singapore networking events. Real talk, differing opinions, and a refreshingly mixed room.
Our community standard This community runs on one principle: honest conversation between real people doing real work. Claims are welcome. Fabrications are not. If you state credentials, be prepared to substantiate them.

Ground rules
• Buy something at the venue. There is no entrance fee, but we are guests of Goodbye Alibi. Purchase a drink, this is a cocktail bar and that is the expectation. • No hard selling. Network freely, but do not force other attendees to sit through your pitch. • Basic decency. SEN welcomes people with differing views and backgrounds. Disagree openly but respectfully.
About SEN In 2002, Nicholas Chan was one of eight co-founders of Project:Senso, a pioneer entrepreneur gathering in Singapore. Nicholas subsequently spun off the Singapore Entrepreneurs Network in 2005; the networking events were working, people kept coming back, and he decided they deserved a permanent home and a life of their own. Two decades on, SEN counts over 20,000 members and runs affiliated chapters in Malaysia, Myanmar, and Taiwan.
