Solving the Loneliness Epidemic through Social Innovation with Kaben Clauson of Base

  • Summary

  • In this episode of Road to the Unknown, Dylan and Mo sit down with Kaben Clauson, co-founder and CEO of Base, a modern social club dedicated to building meaningful, in-person connections in a digital-first world. Founded in 2023, Base is already reshaping how people in cities like Miami, Chicago, and soon Austin and NYC, are finding their “tribe” through curated, small-group dinners and immersive experiences.

    Kaben shares the story behind Base, which grew from his own experiences living in diverse communities—from South Africa to Alaska—and his belief in the power of human connection. As technology pushes us further apart, Base uses it to help people forge deeper relationships across industries and backgrounds.

    In this conversation, we explore:

    • Kaben’s journey from tech entrepreneur to community builder, and how Base aims to address the loneliness epidemic in large cities
    • How Base uses small, carefully matched gatherings to foster genuine connections and cross-industry collaboration
    • The challenges and rewards of creating a scalable social club model in today’s rapidly changing world
    • The role of technology in enhancing, not replacing, human relationships

    Join us as we dive into Kaben’s mission to make cities feel smaller and more connected, one dinner at a time. For anyone passionate about community building, tackling loneliness, or exploring innovative ways to connect, this episode is packed with insights and inspiration.
