Introducing ‘IS THIS SEAT TAKEN?’ — a supper club series brought to life by
@sohohouse ,
@atolapapers &
@1497org . An intimate gathering of founders, creatives, investors, and those shaping industries across tech, culture and business within the South Asian diaspora.
The people reimagining what comes next. At its core is something simple: connection — the force that moves this community forward, and gives spaces like this their meaning.
This marks the first chapter of a global series spanning London, New York, India and beyond. Founded to uplift South Asian talent through its flagship Feature Film Lab,
@1497org is now expanding that spirit across fashion, music, tech, and more.
From the tablescape to the drinks in hand, every detail was curated by
@atolapapers — a platform celebrating the next generation of makers through limited-edition homeware collaborations. Cocktails were crafted by
@kaveridrinks , an unfiltered liqueur rooted in the rituals of India and a respect for mother earth.
