"Most people are going to sign up to meet people they don't know already," Touchi-Peters said. The site officially launches on Sept. 16. Busy? Loaded? “Seeking a place to talk about fine wine, fancy cars and lucrative business decisions without judgment”? Netropolitan.club may be looking for you. Netropolitan.club is no mere social network.
