We believe the Bay Area is full of brilliant, curious people—but genuine in-person connection is rare. That’s where chess comes in.
From community chess events in local venues, to weekend kids’ classes, corporate team-building sessions, and networking meetups — we use the timeless game of chess to build friendships, sharpen minds, and bring people together.
