Join Kyiv's largest network of Ukrainian and foreign professionals!
Fryday Kyiv is a vibrant community that has regular meetings in Kyiv gathering several hundred guests at top venues. Fryday Kyiv attracts a professional and cosmopolitan crowd and gives you an opportunity to broaden your horizons, find new business contacts and meet interesting people.
Fryday Kyiv is organized with an irregular schedule and visits a new venue each time giving you the possibility to see more of both Kyiv and its great variety of residents at the same time. The organizers behind Fryday Kyiv are all from Stockholm where Afterworks have a long tradition. Relocated to Kyiv they missed the chance to socialise and decided to create their own Afterwork club – Fryday Kyiv.
Fryday has a great online community with more than 9,000 members on LinkedIn and more than 8,500 on Facebook and we always add photos and videos from our events.
Come, talk, drink and laugh for a few hours to kick-start the weekend. No tables reserved, no times to keep, no entrance fees to pay and your friends and colleagues are more than welcome to join!
