After building a community of curious minds across Makati and BGC, Think Responsibly is bringing its signature Learning Over Drinks experience to Ortigas for the very first time.

Created by Louis Enriquez, Founder and Chief Curator of Think Responsibly, the event series reimagines nightlife by transforming bars into spaces for meaningful conversations, expert insights, and genuine human connection.
Since its launch, Think Responsibly has featured talks spanning a wide range of subjects—from business, history, food, transportation, and health to culture, creativity, and personal development. In other words, if it gets people thinking, it’s welcome on the stage.
On August 8, 2026, professionals, creatives, entrepreneurs, and lifelong learners are invited to The Gallery Bar at Crowne Plaza Manila Galleria for an evening that proves a night out can be both social and intellectually stimulating.
This edition features two thought-provoking talks from industry experts:
- Edmund C. Lee of COL Financial, who will share insights on building long-term wealth, making smarter financial decisions, and developing an investor’s mindset.
- Antonni Cuesta, photographer and photography educator, who will explore how photography shapes the way we see, interpret, and remember the world around us.
More than just a speaker series, Think Responsibly transforms bars into spaces for meaningful conversations, fresh perspectives, and genuine connections. It’s an opportunity to exchange ideas over a drink, meet people outside your usual circles, and discover something new before the music takes over for the rest of the evening.


The move to Ortigas marks another milestone in Think Responsibly’s mission to redefine nightlife in Metro Manila, showing that the best nights aren’t always the loudest, but sometimes the ones that leave you thinking long after you’ve gone home.
Whether you’re a first-time attendee or a returning member of the community, August 8 is your chance to experience a different kind of Friday night.
See you in Ortigas!
