Come to a meetup that actively encourages self promotion.

Shameless soapbox is for you if you are in business (or want to be), have an idea that you want to get off the ground, or work with budding entrepreneurs in some way. Its an open mic style of networking session where you can introduce yourself, your enterprise or just a good idea to a diverse range of friendlies. Who knows who you might meet? Sounding boards, advocates, collaborators, brokers, advisors, mentors, match-makers, service providers, funders, investors ...

And if you're not the type to be up front in the spotlight, no problem. Join us anyway and chat one on one. This puts a whole month of meetings into a couple of hours - all for the price of a crafted beverage.

So come along and be prepared with:
– A short intro: who, what and why
– Lots of business cards
– Brochures and other printed material to pass around
– An open mind

Doors open at 5.30pm
Shameless Soapbox runs 6.00–7.30pm
Optional networking until 8.00pm

Free parking onsite. No entry fee. Cash bar, nibbles provided. Registration to this event on Meetup confirms your attendance, but to sign up for your 2 minutes of shameless self promotion on the soapbox, please email tina.kittelty@vapour.co.nz.

We hope to see you there!
