CAA Coffee Chats

Join CAA Mentorship Sessions: Coffee Chats, an intimate and informal gathering designed for aspiring and newly established architecture firm owners. Held in relaxed settings like coffee shops or pubs, these hour-long sessions foster a sense of community where you can connect with peers navigating similar entrepreneurial journeys.

With small groups of 6–8 participants, you’ll enjoy meaningful conversations, practical tools, and strategies to launch or grow your practice with confidence.

Whether you’re laying the foundation for your firm or contemplating the entrepreneurial leap, Coffee Chats offers a vibrant space to share insights, forge lasting connections, and build a trusted network for long-term success. Come for the coffee, stay for the inspiration.
