They say you’re the average of the five people you spend the most time with.

You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.

But when you build a company, it’s rare to have people around you who truly get it and help you grow. Building can feel isolating, and it quietly creates a gap with the people closest to you. It’s hard for them to picture your daily reality.

You need a circle that actually understands you and lives the same reality.

People who challenge how you think, push you to see bigger, and celebrate the wins with you.

The problem is that when you try to meet other entrepreneurs, the conversations turn too serious, too professional, too transactional. When building a company should also come with a rich, genuinely enjoyable social life beyond the business.

A private, selective social club for entrepreneurs who want something more than networking.

For founders who want to build a circle of inspiring entrepreneurs, create real bonds — all through relaxed, convivial experiences in real life.

That’s why The Five Club exists.

What members say

“Genuinely high-quality encounters that bring a real breath of fresh air when you’re constantly heads-down. It’s exactly what was missing in the ecosystem. And beyond the conversations, it also helped me kick off some great collaborations. Can’t wait to see how far this goes.”
Toni Paignant Founder, Spark Club
“What I love about The Five Club is that it’s not “networking”. The vibe is simple, the exchanges are natural. And above all, the encounters don’t stop at the dinner. We stay in touch and real relationships grow.”
Alexandra Debbas Founder, A Pet Store
“A format where you step out of the superficial and meet truly high-quality entrepreneurs. A beautiful ritual to disconnect too. The cocktail dinner in the apartment was also a great success. Highly recommend.”
Kevin Vincent Founder, Yaazzz

The best connections happen in person.

Behind every photo there’s a moment, a conversation that ran long and someone you’d never have met otherwise. Join The Five and live them from the inside.

Everything you need to know.

The Five is a private social club for founders. We bring carefully selected people together through social experiences in real life: Founders Dinners, Banquets and more to come. Think less networking event, more group of people you’re genuinely happy to spend the evening with.
Founders who are actively building or leading a company and want a stronger social circle around them. We look at your journey and business, but also at your curiosity, openness and reasons for joining. If your main goal is finding clients, this probably isn’t the right room.
We accept around one in four applications. Every profile is read individually because one person can change the whole dynamic of a group—for better or worse.
Always in places we pick ourselves, in easy-to-reach neighbourhoods: a new restaurant each time for the Founders Dinner, somewhere more unexpected for the Banquet. The exact address lands shortly before.
Please do. Most people come alone. We created the whole experience so it feels completely normal.
Founders Dinners happen regularly: you pick the date that suits you in the app. The Banquet brings more of the community together, with new formats added along the way.
We reveal the profiles and location shortly before the event. Enough time to know where you’re going. Not enough time to overthink it.
Some Signature Experiences are open to approved non-members. Membership gives you ongoing access to the community, Founders Dinners, priority booking and preferred member rates.
We’re currently in Paris, Marseille, Geneva and Lausanne. San Francisco and Sydney are next on the list.
