A small circle of 4-6 professionals.
Ericeira
Guild of Intervision
A gathering for solo professionals - entrepreneurs, freelancers and service providers. Bring a real problem. Leave with real solutions. Solved together. Face to face.
Solo work has left you solving in isolation
You work alone. Maybe from a spare room, a kitchen table, a co-working desk you rent by the day. You're meant to be doing creative, skilled work. Yet the room around you is about as uncreative as it gets.
When you hit a wall, there’s no one beside you to turn to except for AI and Google. You perform confidently for your clients, but often you’re guessing alone, backed up by a chatbot’s advice.
But when did you last turn to a real life person with your question?
Professionals used to grow in community
Guilds trained and supported craftspeople through their peers.
Symposiums gave thinkers a room to be challenged.
Coffeehouses gathered merchants and scientists to argue ideas daily.
Ateliers trained artists shoulder to shoulder, correcting each other's work.
Even absinthe bars gathered artists and aristocrats to ponder ideas.
Different rooms, different crafts, same instinct:
Real problems get solved by real people, together, in person.
Somewhere along the way, solo, digital work took that away.
We're bringing it back.
The Intervision Format
Each participant’s problem is the center of attention for 30 minutes.
Then the focus shifts to the others’ and you help solve them.
We finish when everyone has a solution to work with
No Pitches. No networking. No presentations to a passive room.
Our Values
Human First, Built By Hand
Every gathering happens in-person, face to face. Every solution leaves the room as something you can hold.
The Problem Matters More Than The Persona
The problem you bring is worth more than the persona you'd rather present. Arrive with what you haven't solved - that honesty is the price of entry.
Physical Presence Is The Commitment
No dial-ins, no half-attention, no slipping out early. To be in the room is to be fully in it and we ask that in full.
Apply with a conversation
If this is speaking to you, we invite you to meet for a coffee in ericeira.
No forms. No pitch decks, no bios, nothing to prepare in advance.
WhatsApp whichever of us you'd feel most comfortable talking to, and we'll arrange a time and place to meet.
We're purposefully building something small, personal and intimate.
