Care for a seat at the table? Let us know if you’d like to be invited to the Ergo Dining Series.
Ergo - Discussion Dining is a private, invite-only long-table dinner series that brings together thought leaders, creatives, and academics for rich, guided conversation over a shared meal. Each gathering centers around one provocative theme designed to inspire dialogue, connection, and curiosity.
No panels, no phones, no performance. Just connection and conversation.
Each dinner is intentionally small — typically 12–20 guests — and invite-only. If you’ve received an invitation, it’s because your voice adds something essential to the conversation.
We also accept select nominations from previous guests.
