FAQs

What is the GrowthX Host Club?

It's a collective of ambitious GrowthX members hosting curated experiences across India. Not networking events - think sunset photography walks, ramen nights, AI deep-dives, or just coffee with interesting people. Built for bonding, not business cards.

Who can become a host?

Right now, hosting is exclusive to GrowthX members who've shown they get what real community building is about. We're looking for people who can curate experiences, not run networking events.

How do I attend an event if I'm not a GrowthX member?

Simple. Register on the platform and you can sign up for any open event. After registering, you'll get an approval link - share it on your socials and any GrowthX member can vouch for you. Or if you already know someone in GrowthX, just send them your link directly. Once approved, you're in.

What's the typical group size?

Most events have 8-15 people. Some intimate dinners might be just 6 people, while activity-based events might go up to 20. But we'll never stuff 100 people in a room.

What cities have active Host Clubs?

We're live in Mumbai, Bangalore, Delhi, Hyderabad, Pune, Chennai, Kolkata, Ahmedabad, Gurgaon, Noida, and Jaipur. More cities launching based on where our hosts are.

Do hosts charge for events?

That's up to the host. Some events are free, some split costs (like dinner bills), and some charge a fee. Everything's transparent on the event page.

What support do hosts get?

Beautiful event pages that actually convert, access to our curated member base, zero platform fees, and a host community that shares what works. Plus, we handle RSVPs and reminders.

How often can I host?

As much or as little as you want. Some hosts do weekly coffee meetups, others do one epic quarterly event. Your call.

Is this only for startup folks?

Not at all. We have designers, engineers, marketers, VCs, founders, consultants, creators - anyone building something interesting. The common thread is ambition and curiosity, not job titles.

Can I host a virtual event?

Sure, but honestly, the magic happens IRL. Virtual works for specific masterminds or deep-dives, but the whole point is getting people together in person.

Can companies sponsor events?

Nope. The moment a company logo appears, it becomes transactional. Individual hosts only.

What happens if someone tries to sell or pitch at an event?

They won't be invited back. Hosts have full control and our community self-polices. One complaint about pushy selling and you're out. We protect the vibe at all costs.

Can I bring a friend?

Check with the host first. Some events are open to plus-ones, others are carefully curated for a specific group dynamic. The event page usually mentions if you can bring someone.

How do I know if an event is right for me?

Each event page shows the vibe, topic, and type of people attending. Read the host's description - they're pretty clear about who'd enjoy it. When in doubt, just apply. Worst case, you'll know it's not your thing.

Why should I host instead of just attending?

Hosting is how you shape the community you want. You decide the vibe, the people, the experience. Plus, nothing builds deeper connections than bringing people together around what you care about.

Is my data/privacy protected?

Your contact info is never shared without consent. Hosts can't export attendee lists. What happens at events stays there - no one's recording or posting without asking.

What makes this different from Meetup or Luma?

It's all about who's in the room. Every host is vetted through GrowthX membership, and 90% of attendees come pre-approved by the community. Most event platforms fail because they focus on the event format - but the real issue is size and curation. Anyone can create a Meetup and 200 strangers might show up. Here, it's 10-15 pre-vetted people who actually belong together. No cold pitches, no badge scanning, just carefully selected humans vibing.

What's the long-term vision?

Imagine every city having these micro-communities where ambitious people actually know each other. Not professionally, but as humans. Where your network isn't a LinkedIn number but people who'd actually pick up your 2am call.

Patience—you’re about to be impressed.
