Pick a seat

Everyone brings a question. Tap a seat to hear one.

When the “networking” happens

Questions

Who can come?

Every LSE student, from any department and any year. You don’t need to know what career you want.

Do I need a CV or experience?

No. To apply for a dinner you answer one short question about the guest, and that’s it.

How are seats given out?

Fairly. Each dinner has ten seats, and people who haven’t had a seat yet get priority, so new faces keep coming to the table.

What does it cost?

Registering your interest is free. Dinner seats will be priced to stay fair and affordable.

When do dinners start?

LSE Inspire is applying to become an LSESU society for 2026/27. Register your interest and you’ll be the first to hear about dinners, guests and launch events.
