Sometimes, the person you need is in another city. Between Taipei and Tokyo, there exists a peculiar affinity — similar urban rhythms, kindred aesthetic sensibilities, and the same standards for quality of life. VEENI's cross-city exchange creates opportunities for Chinese elite in these two cities to meet.

Event Design

Each cross-city event brings together approximately 10 guests from Taipei and 10 from Tokyo over two days. Before the event, matchmakers are already at work — reviewing guests' backgrounds and qualities from both cities, anticipating pairings that may resonate, and designing the event to create space for those connections.

"We don't simply put people from two cities in the same room and hope for miracles. Before the event even begins, we're already thinking: what story might unfold between A and B."

Two-Day Programme

Day 1 — Evening
Welcome Dinner
At a private restaurant in the host city, Taipei × Tokyo guests meet for the first time. A relaxed dinner format allows both groups to establish basic familiarity before the main programme.
Day 2 — Morning
City Exploration
Led by local guests, the group visits an interesting destination — a gallery, bookshop, architectural landmark, or private space. Exploring a place together is a far more natural way to connect than any icebreaker.
Day 2 — Afternoon
Free Matching Time
The afternoon features semi-structured small group conversations — 3–4 people per group, 30 minutes per round — giving guests the opportunity for deeper exchange in a more intimate setting.
Day 2 — Evening
Farewell Dinner & Next Steps
The final dinner tends to be the most relaxed. After the event, if guests wish to stay in touch, matchmakers facilitate subsequent introductions.

Language Information

Events are conducted bilingually in Chinese and Japanese, with live interpretation support. Interestingly, where language barriers exist, people often say more authentic things — precisely because they must express themselves more intentionally.

Long-Distance Relationship Support

After facilitating cross-city connections, VEENI continues to provide ongoing support — including cross-border matching services and long-distance relationship guidance. We understand that cross-city love requires more flexibility, which is why we accompany you throughout the entire journey.
