Good day everyone!
As we have supported local restaurant, Pokok, for a year, it's now time support another business (though not local). This time we're meeting at MIXUE at Level 4 Foodcourt, Lalaport, BBCC. They serve ice cream and tea. There are long tables and benches on the right side so we can make ourselves comfortable.
Same relaxed crowd, same great drinks and finger food, do feel free to bring your friends along for a night of good conversation and good food. I do look forward to seeing you all there!
For your benefit, here are some Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What is the agenda of this monthly Malaysia Entrepreneur gathering?
A. We're back to a physical meetup and some of us out of practice on how to talk to others face to face. So let's start networking and asking questions such as what do you do, what brings you here and take it from there. As usual, try not to bore the other party with the history of your business. Rather, open the conversation with trending topics. Search google, there's lots.
Q. Is this a free to attend event?
A. Yes, you just have to pay the venue for the food/drinks you consume. Do support any of the open outlets at the food court by buying their drinks/food.
Q. I am not an entrepreneur/I am a student/I am thinking of becoming an entrepreneur/I am a government worker/I am a corporate worker/etc. Am I still allowed/able to come for the event?
A. Sure!
Q. I have this marvelous new method of making money the easy and fast way via Multi-Level Marketing/Personal Franchising/insert-other-similar-names...
A. PLEASE DO NOT TURN UP AND HARASS OUR ATTENDEES. And NO, I do not intend to answer your questions "why/what is wrong/why are you so closed minded/why are you etc etc".
Q. I have this great idea! But why don't you do it for me?
A. Malaysia Entrepreneurs Network is a volunteer driven initiative. We are under no obligation to do anything for you, and neither are my fellow co-organizers. That said, we welcome whoever wishes to organize an event series as long as you have commitment in running the events.
