The Gathering Spot, an innovative, private, members-only business and social club, launches today to cater to highly motivated professionals, entrepreneurs and creatives that seek a work and socializing alternative to traditional city or country clubs, startup incubators and co-working spaces.

Opening its first location in the U.S. near Atlanta's central business district, The Gathering Spot provides a 24/7 business and social environment, complete with stimulating events, concierge services, integrated technology and a full-service restaurant and bar. Founded by business partners and Georgetown graduates Ryan Wilson and TK Petersen, The Gathering Spot is for individuals who share a focus and commitment to their work and deeply desire to collaborate with a connected community, regardless of their field.

"Upon entering the professional world, I discovered a void for an environment that fostered collaboration and communication with the new generation of business leaders," explains Ryan Wilson, CEO and co-founder, The Gathering Spot. "The Gathering Spot re-defines the multi-generational country and city club legacy, and it layers in a more social, concierge-style experience than what people find in co-working spaces. It facilitates connections and provides a trusted place where members can host both impressive business meetings as well as intimate personal dinners in the same stylized environment."
