High-level networking in a “petit comité”
If you are looking for an interesting event where you can make quality contacts and meet successful executives in a friendly, relaxed setting, this is the event for you.
I think it was through my friend Candice Laporte that I discovered these lunches and, at the same time, the entrepreneurs’ network Emprende Network.
This network was founded by Manuel Gandarias and its aim is to create a meeting point for entrepreneurs to exchange knowledge, experiences, information, products and services.
But since the best way to share knowledge and experiences is face to face, it organises business lunches with exceptional guests. They are usually held on the third Tuesday of every month. So far these have been the speakers:
- Antonio Catalán. Founder of AC Hoteles
- Jesús Encinar. Founder and chairman of Idealista and 11870
- Didac Lee. CEO of Inspirit (Inspirit Labs, Spamina, Zyncro, Conzentra, Intercomgi)
- Rodolfo Carpintier. Chairman of DAD
- Alejandro Suárez. Partner at Genolab, CEO of Ocio Networks, Publispain and Yes.fm
- Eduardo Tormo. Chairman of Tormo & Asociados
With this line-up of excellent speakers, and at €50 for the meal if you are a member of Emprende Network, who could resist?
What do I like about the event?
- Very well-known speakers; what’s more, I’m lucky enough to know most of them and I never tire of seeing and hearing them again.
- The speakers or guests don’t give a talk: they tell you about their own experience, the mistakes they’ve made and their key advice.
- A small number of participants. So we can all introduce ourselves, take part and ask the guest questions.
- The location. The AC Cuzco hotel has good transport links and it’s always in a private room.
- The other guests. You always meet someone interesting.
With these ingredients, the networking at the end of the event over coffee is excellent. If you’re not in a hurry you can stay and chat. So far my experience has been excellent.
As well as these lunches, Emprende Network also organises seminars, webinars, talks and experiences.
