We would like to give a big thank you to everyone who joined us for The Collective Vol. 2 at .andwork Shibuya! As an event put together for freelancers by freelancers, we were so delighted to see over a hundred freelancers and friends enjoying the night together!

We, at Sollective, believe that freelance is a lifestyle, and freelancers deserve to play just as hard as they work. The Collective is an ongoing event in celebration of the amazing community of freelancers in Japan! For Volume 2, we brought back our amazing DJs, new speakers for the Lightning Talks, drinks, tacos, and a fun Photo Booth!

We also couldn’t have organized this event without the amazing coordination from Yoko Matsuo!
