Connecting people is a natural part of my DNA. I've been doing it as long as I can remember, even as far back as middle school when I created the Thursday Lunchtime Disco Club!
I love technology and I love the convenience of working from home, but I believe it's vital that we put the brakes on the trend, which has been hastening over the past few years, of shifting our whole lives online.
I've been asked a few times, when I tell people about Amicii, why I’m focusing on connecting people via dining experiences.
For me, it was an obvious solution. This is how I've always gathered my people and has resulted in some of the most memorable, fond experiences in my life.
Research from the University of Oxford found that people who eat socially are more likely to feel better about themselves and have a wider social network. So, you don't just need to take my anecdotal word for it!
There are so many facets of why I believe this is important for our society, and the benefits are multi-layered. Social connection brings many health and well-being benefits, but by gathering in venues, we are also helping to revive local communities and build their economies.
That sounds like a win-win-win to me.

If you think about the times that you've gathered with friends and family, how many of them have been around a table?
