🕢 Doors open at 18:30 and sessions start at 19:00. Freestyle vocal workout at and play session. €8-20 😌 Flow is a state of being… an experience when you allow yourself to be 100% fully engaged in the present moment in a feedback loop between clarity and satisfaction. It is an undeniable sensation where things seem to be more effortless, pleasurable, in sync, and you can easily sense a connection with something greater than yourself; this is what we will create…: • a connected and mindful meditation where it is possible to blissfully surf the cutting edge of the present moment together… • a game where it’s possible to feel excited and calm in the same moment, and everyone can win as much as they like… Scott Bolden, founder of Das Baumhaus Berlin will share some very easy, practical and effective methods developed during the last 12 years of facilitating the “Improvisational Groove Orchestra” (I.G.O.) improv vocal jam sessions. Within 20 minutes participants learn to use the common sound space to create resonance in the form of improvisational music where it is quite common to experience some real flow moments… It is very easy to participate, no musical talent or training is required so anyone is welcome to join. All of the session is done with eyes closed to avoid visual distractions and keep focus on the co-created sound space. During these sessions we will also have short breaks for feedback and refreshment. Important – Please be on time. It is very important to understand the methodology and warm up in the group before joining in! 🎤 @21:00 - Freestyle vocal workshop and practice session. €8-15 Have you ever wanted to learn how to do freestyle vocalizations? Maybe you are on your way and would like to just have a fun workout session with other vocal freestyle enthusiasts. All levels welcome.

Berlin is slowly slipping into summer again — longer evenings, warmer air and the feeling that staying home might mean missing something. Join us for a Monday night full of conversations, new faces and a little bit of early summer energy before the city gets too busy to notice itself. ✨ Tiny optional challenge: Bring one small thing that feels like summer in Berlin to you. A photo, an object, a snack, sunglasses, a book, a strange souvenir — anything with a story behind it. Orga The location accepts only card payments. We will be sitting in the first room. Questions?

So hast du andere Leute in Berlin wahrscheinlich noch nie kennengelernt! Bis zu 10 Singles, die sich zuvor nicht kennen, treffen sich in einer Bar und lernen sich bei einem eigens für diese Veranstaltungsreihe entwickelten Spiel näher kennen. Das Spiel kombiniert eine gelungene Mischung aus Fragen, Aktionsaufgaben und lustiger Unterhaltung, die alleine oder als Team gemeistert werden. Durch verschiedene Aufgaben und Fragen kommen die Spieler in direkte Interaktion miteinander und lernen sich im Spielverlauf näher kennen. Im Vergleich zur klassischen Single Party lernst du bei Socialmatch wirklich nur Singles in deiner Altersgruppe kennen und kommst von ganz alleine ins Gespräch mit den anderen Teilnehmern. Ein Spielmoderator vor Ort informiert über den Ablauf und leitet durch den Abend. Sicher dir jetzt deinen Platz beim nächsten Event unter [[www.socialmatch.de](http://www.socialmatch.de/)] und lerne neue Leute in deiner Stadt kennen. Dieses Event ist für die Altersgruppe 20 - 35 Jahre. P.S. Socialmatch erhielt 2015 bereits einen Award für das Konzept, teste es selbst ;-) **Achtung: Nur mit Buchung über die Website ist eine Teilnahme möglich!**

Music: Chill Out · Afro House, Nu Jazz Strict Dress Code: Business Attire, Cocktail What CBC Stands For Our Code of Conduct We live in a time where attention is declining, trust is eroding, and success is often pursued at the expense of integrity. CBC exists to demonstrate the opposite. CBC is a space where business and ethics belong together — proving that success is possible without sacrificing humanity or values. Our Core Principles Honesty Reliability Respect Tolerance and global-mindedness Zero discrimination (no racism, sexism, or exclusion of any kind) Professional conduct and adherence to business standards Integrity in dealing with contacts and leads Responsibility toward the community Openness to new business trends such as Influencing & AI We are global citizens and commit to living these principles consistently — without moralizing, but with clarity. Important Rules The event is for connection and VibXchange. You may of course introduce yourself and explain what you do. Religion, politics and sexual topics are not discussed at CBC after-work events. Inviting members of the CBC network into competing networks is considered unethical and will result in immediate exclusion from the club & the community. Why We Ask You to Bring the Right People CBC should grow — with the right energy and the right individuals. You contribute by inviting people who: share our values think entrepreneurially are open to meaningful exchange like to have fun Every recommendation strengthens the community. Every new person expands our collective potential. Our Commitment to You We work day and night to build CBC: marketing, partnerships, events, standards, branding and structure. We invest time, resources and reputation because we deeply believe in this concept. I personally stand behind CBC with my name and 25 years of international experience in the Travel, Yacht, Real Estate and Cybersecurity industries. My goal is to create an international space where trust, fun, values and business opportunities come together in a warm non suppressed environment.

🚀 **From Idea to First 10 Customers — Part 2** ​The journey doesn’t stop after building the idea. The real challenge begins when you need people to actually use — and pay for — what you created. ​After the great response to our first session, we’re bringing back Part 2 with deeper discussions, practical insights, and real founder experiences focused on getting traction in the early stages. ​This session is designed for founders, aspiring entrepreneurs, freelancers, and anyone interested in understanding how startups move from an idea to their first real users and customers. ​No unrealistic “growth hacks.” No theory overload. Just practical conversations around early-stage growth, validation, customer acquisition, and building momentum. *** # ​💡 What We’ll Discuss ​• How to get your first users • Finding early adopters • Mistakes founders make in the beginning • Why validation matters more than perfection • Building trust before scaling • Realistic approaches to early customer acquisition • Lessons from startup experiences *** # ​🎯 Why Join ​Because getting your first customers is often harder than building the product itself. ​This session will help you better understand: ✔ how people discover products ✔ why some ideas gain traction and others don’t ✔ what founders should focus on in the early stages *** # ​📅 Event Details ​📅 **May 30, 2026** ⏰ **13:00 – 15:30** 📍 **The Social Hub** ​See you there!

Let’s be honest: the traditional cultural sector often forces us to choose between our creative integrity and our financial survival. The myth of the "starving artist" or the "solitary genius" is a trap that keeps cultural workers in a constant state of precarity. But what if we could design our projects differently? What if we could build cultural businesses based on solidarity, cooperation, and radical sustainability? Join us on May 27th for an interactive, hands-on workshop co-hosted by ODBK and Travelling U. We will explore how to dismantle extractivist practices and design alternative business models that actually serve the creators. **What you will learn in this session:** * Beyond the Canvas: How to view system design and business models as part of your artistic medium. * Alternative Frameworks: An introduction to cooperative structures and the solidarity economy. * Redefining Value: How to measure the success of your cultural project using metrics of care, rather than just capitalist extraction. * Real-World Pathways: Tangible examples of cultural workers who have successfully subverted the system to gain economic sovereignty. **Who is this for?** Artists, cultural managers, creative freelancers, and social entrepreneurs in Berlin who are tired of the traditional hustle culture and want to explore sustainable, collective ways to structure their work. **About the Facilitator:** Oihane Amurrio is an artist, educator, and cultural entrepreneur based in Berlin. She specialises in designing alternative pedagogical models in the cultural sector and is the lead designer of the *Cooperative Cultural Entrepreneurship (CCE)* program at Travelling U.

Monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners. One specific topic, one to three actions you can run this week. You can be the best at what you do and still be invisible. If local buyers cannot find you, the phone does not ring. Marketing Monday Lunch + Learn is a monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners focused on building relationships, local networking, and local marketing. Every kind of local business welcome. No pitch round, no pressure, no upsell. **This month** Most local businesses pick one or two places to be visible and call it good. The result is inconsistent calls and a feeling that marketing is not working. We will walk through the three places every local business needs to show up, plus the fourth place most owners ignore that quietly produces the warmest leads. **What to expect** Doors open at noon. Order lunch and drinks at the cafe counter or bring your own. You get real conversation with other local owners and a focused marketing lesson.
