Who we are
An app for real meetups
Bamboo Connect
Get to know people in your city, and meet them for real, close to home.
Bamboo Connect (במבו קונקט) is an Israeli app that connects people to meetups in the real world. Instead of another feed and more scrolling, it matches community members by interests, goals and city, and turns the match into a coffee, a small meal or a small meetup.
How it is different
A real person reads every request
The community is screened. That is what lets you meet people you did not know, with a confidence and a level of seriousness that an open WhatsApp group does not give.
Small meetups, at your own pace
One on one or in a small group, close to home, in public places.
Your location is rounded, and no one sees it
It only works out who is nearby.
Not a dating app
Here you meet friends, work partners and mentors.
Who runs Bamboo Connect
The service is operated by Ran Shoshan.
Most apps that are supposed to connect people keep them in front of the screen. Bamboo Connect was built the other way around: the goal is that you close it and go sit down with someone for coffee.
Similar name, different business
Bamboo Connect is a standalone app. There are other businesses with a similar name that we have no connection to.
We are Bamboo Connect, at bambooil.app, and on Instagram @bamboo.club.il.
