At 33Club, our role extends well beyond networking. We are proud to serve as a platform where ideas are refined, partnerships are formed, and businesses are given the opportunity to grow.

One such journey has been the launch of Slab Coffee, founded by our member, Shane Lee.

The journey began during 33Club’s 3rd Anniversary in March 2026, where we were honoured to host the soft opening of Slab Coffee in collaboration with H.E. Sebastián Breton Pérez. The event introduced guests to exceptional Panamanian coffee while celebrating entrepreneurship, innovation and meaningful collaboration within our community.

Building on that momentum, Slab Coffee officially opened its doors in July 2026, with a distinguished diplomatic presence including H.E. Luciano Mazza de Andrade, H.E. Jaime José López Badía, and Minister Counselor Mauricio Moran. It was a proud milestone that reflected months of dedication, vision and support from those who believed in the project.

Watching one of our members transform an idea into a successful business is exactly what 33Club stands for.

While investment and strategic networking remain at the heart of our community, we are equally committed to helping founders and entrepreneurs navigate the journey of building and scaling their ventures. Through introductions, business advisory, partnerships and access to the right ecosystem, we aim to create opportunities that extend far beyond the walls of our club.

Congratulations to Shane Lee and the entire Slab Coffee team on this exciting achievement. We are honoured to have been part of the journey from the very beginning and look forward to seeing what comes next.

Where meaningful connections become lasting businesses.

By community. By collaboration. By 33Club.
