The Prometheum is a non-profit organization in Stamford, CT, inspired by the Founders of The United States, that aims to foster debate, discussion, and the free exchange of ideas. Drawing from the mythology of ancient Greece and the influence of Benjamin Franklin, the Prometheum provides an open forum for intellectually curious individuals to expand their intellect, share their thoughts, and cultivate their ideas through spirited and thought-provoking discussions. With a rich history dating back to 1727, when Benjamin Franklin organized a group called the Junto for structured debates, the Prometheum continues this tradition by hosting weekly gatherings on Thursday evenings. These gatherings bring together young professionals from diverse fields to engage in philosophical and topical debates, all while enjoying a full-course dinner, fine beverages, and even cigar smoke. The Prometheum follows a Code of Promethean Debate, emphasizing equality, open-mindedness, and the pursuit of truth in all conversations.
