Firstly we would like to say a big thank you to everyone who attended last night’s ENB Meeting. This has been the largest number of attendees to our meeting yet.
Secondly we would like to give a special thanks to Jeaninne Horowitz and Chris Pommerening for their wonderful talks on the challenges facing Entreprenereurs in business or setting up a business in Spain today. The talks were followed by a lively debate, with lots of interesting questions and comments from the audience. Plenty of related and interesting topics came out in the Q&A session which we hope will spur on further in-depth talks and presentations for future ENB events.
For those members who are interested reading more about the World Bank Report on global businesses which Jeaninne referenced in her talk please visit: http://www.doingbusiness.org/economyrankings/
The talk was then followed by our regular social meeting in the hotal bar where members were busy neworking and continuing discussions on related business topics.
We had an interesting presentation from Ouali Benmeziane on the Search Congress Barcelona event taking running from January 28th to the 30th at the Hotel Rey Jan Carlos I and the Palacio de Coongresos de Cataluña. Ouali has kindly offered ENB members a special discount of 70€ discount on Congress, Pack Gold (Congress+1 Workshop) and Pack Vip (Congress+Workshop+Gala-Dinner). Any members who are interested in the offer please contact us on: info@networkbarcelona.com and we’ll arrange the discount for you.
Following Oualis’ presentation we had a number of members giving their 2-minute elevator pitches. Amongst companies featured was new ENB member Chauncey Zalkin Creative Director of www.girlonthestreet.com, Lluis Carreras CEO of www.mobifriends.com, Karen Holladay from South Africa Adventures, Tine Mathiassen from www.casamona.com, Corporate Communications Consultant Lene Tourn, Clemens Rossberg CEO www.fonyou.com, and Guy Reifenberg Company Director of www.kokopeliadventure.com.
Last night was for some their first encounter with ENB, with many people coming from other Barcelona networks such as The Gild and Entrepreneurship City. This was an excellent chance for our members to meet and exchange contacts with other fellow entrepreneurs. We would like to thank them for coming and hope to see them again at another ENB event.
The ENB Team
