Sweep the island. See who’s building nearby.
Beam is how Cyprus’s founders, investors and operators find the few people worth meeting this week. Say what you’re looking for and what you can offer. Every Monday Beam picks eight people whose Offer answers your Ask, or who are after what you give. Meet or Not now: nobody ever sees a Not now, and a Meet shows only if they say it back. When it’s mutual, chat opens. Around it, a live map of who’s building in each district, and a shared calendar.
It launches invite-only, seeded from the FAROS community first — the same “someone already vouches for you” logic as the Registry. This page is the queue before that queue: join now, and referring people who’d actually use it moves you up it.
The best conversation you have this month might be with someone three streets away you’ve never met.
Your Ask and your Offer
What you’re looking for — funding, a co-founder, customers, people to hire, advice — and what you can give, each in a sentence. That’s what Beam matches on, not a photo.
Eight people, every Monday
Your Drop: people whose Offer answers your Ask, or who are after what you offer, with who invited them and who you both know. A handful a week, not an endless deck. Once a week you can send someone your Priority, with a note, and it goes to the top of their Drop.
Match, then chat
Say Meet or Not now. A Meet shows only if they say Meet back; then chat opens, and you have three days to say hello before the match fades.
See the island
A heatmap of five districts — Nicosia, Limassol, Larnaca, Paphos, Famagusta — weighted by who’s actually there. Tap one to see who’s chosen to be shown. Home area and “visible now” are both opt-in, off by default, and never a computed distance to anyone.
Meet in person
A shared calendar inside the app: community events members propose and FAROS reviews before they go up, and times you’re free that only your connections can see and book. Say you’re going, with your name shown only if you choose. Everything on it is deleted once it’s over.
Referring people who’d actually use this moves you up the list.

[DECIDE — who to say holds this data, and how to be removed.] This form stores an email address, a role and optionally a district in Supabase. Nothing on the page says who is responsible for it, why, or how someone can ask to be removed — a privacy notice and a link to a policy belong here. The fuller privacy policy for the app itself is drafted (tinder-for-business/legal/PRIVACY-POLICY.md) but not published; this page needs at least a line and a link once that exists.
