About RSN
People meet for a reason.
RSN is built around a simple idea: you do not need everyone. You need the right people for the right reason.
Request to joinI have spent most of my adult life building companies, advising founders, selling, raising money and meeting people.
And I have always found networking slightly strange.
You walk into a room full of interesting people and somehow end up having the same conversation again and again.
“What do you do?”
The question everyone answers. The one nobody enjoys.
Then comes the pitch. Then the polite exchange of LinkedIn details. And very often, nothing happens afterwards.
I wanted to see if we could make that better.
So RSN started very simply: put two people together for eight minutes. No pitching. No rehearsed introductions. No trying to impress the room. Just two people, a reason to meet, and a proper conversation.
That became Raw Speed Networking.
But once we started doing it, something else became obvious.
The eight minutes were not really the interesting part. The interesting part was deciding which two people should have those eight minutes in the first place.
That is where RSN is going now.
We are building a platform that understands why people want to meet, what they are looking for, what they can offer, where they are in life or business, and who might actually be worth putting in front of them.
Sometimes that reason is business.
Sometimes that reason is help.
Sometimes that reason is an idea.
Sometimes that reason is simply that two people should know each other.
Technology should not replace human interaction. It should help make the right interaction happen.
