Willkommen bei *"Build & Connect"*, dem Treffpunkt für Selbstständige und alle, die es werden wollen – organisiert von Gründerio. English description below. Dieses kostenfreie Event richtet sich an Menschen, die selbstständig sind und ihre Reise mit neuen Perspektiven, wertvollen Kontakten und spannenden Insights bereichern möchten. Natürlich sind auch alle willkommen, die sich noch in der Planungsphase ihrer Selbstständigkeit befinden! **Das erwartet dich bei unserem Meetup:** 🌟 **Paneltalk**: "Agentur aufbauen, aber wie?" Drei Perspektiven auf Wachstum, Team & Positionierung in Zeiten von KI Agentur ist nicht gleich Agentur. Und es gibt nicht den einen richtigen Weg, ein Unternehmen aufzubauen. Beim nächsten Gründerio Meetup sprechen wir mit drei Agenturinhaber:innen, die ganz unterschiedliche Wege gegangen sind. Im Panel geht es um: • Wie und wann der Schritt vom Freelancer zur Agentur sinnvoll ist • Was sich verändert, wenn plötzlich ein Team da ist • Welche Strukturen und Systeme beim Wachstum wirklich helfen • Wie sich Agenturen heute in Zeiten von KI positionieren • Und warum nicht jeder skalieren *muss*, aber jede:r bewusst entscheiden sollte 🎤 **Mit dabei sind:** **Johanna Lederer (Studio Ardē)** Vom Freelancer-Start zur eigenen Agentur **Mathias Böhm (Artline Design)** Einblicke in den Aufbau und die Führung eines größeren Teams sowie die Herausforderungen, die mit Wachstum kommen. **Lauren Klocker (Boxquadrat)** Ein Co-Founder-Setup mit eigener Dynamik Im Anschluss gibt es Raum für Fragen, Diskussionen und Networking in entspannter Atmosphäre. 🤝 **Austausch auf Augenhöhe:** In einer entspannten Atmosphäre kannst du dich mit Gleichgesinnten vernetzen, Ideen austauschen und von den Erfahrungen anderer profitieren. 🍹 **Gechillte Atmosphäre:** Uns ist wichtig, dass du dich wohlfühlst und Spaß hast. Wenn sich daraus ein neuer Geschäftskontakt oder eine Zusammenarbeit entwickelt – umso besser! 🚀 **Unser Ziel:** Wir möchten dir nicht nur die Möglichkeit bieten, neue Leute kennenzulernen und echte Verbindungen zu schaffen, sondern dir auch praktische Werkzeuge an die Hand geben, die deinen unternehmerischen Alltag erleichtern und dein Business optimieren. Wir freuen uns darauf, dich bei unserem nächsten Treffen in Wien willkommen zu heißen. Lass uns zusammen lernen, wachsen und die Reise als Selbstständige gestalten. **Follow us!** [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/82057598/admin/dashboard/) \| [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/gruenderio/?next=%2F) \| [Whatsapp-Gruppe](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Kyi26Bl7v8S6MwZb5VJNmT) \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Welcome to *"Build & Connect"*, the meet-up for entrepreneurs and everyone aspiring to become one – hosted by Gründerio.

Here’s what awaits you at our meet-up: 🌟 **Panel Discussion (in German!): “Building an Agency — But How?”** Three Perspectives on Growth, Team, and Positioning in the Age of AI Not all agencies are created equal. And there’s no single right way to build a business. At the next Gründerio Meetup, we’ll be talking with three agency owners who have taken very different paths. The panel will cover: • How and when it makes sense to make the leap from freelancer to agency • What changes when you suddenly have a team • Which structures and systems really help with growth • How agencies position themselves today in the age of AI • And why not everyone has to scale—but everyone should make a conscious decision 🎤 Joining us are: Johanna Lederer (Studio Ardē) From freelance beginnings to her own agency Mathias Böhm (Artline Design) Insights into building and leading a larger team, as well as the challenges that come with growth. Lauren Klocker (Boxquadrat) A co-founder setup with its own dynamic Afterward, there will be time for questions, discussions, and networking in a relaxed atmosphere. 🤝 **Exchange:** Connect with like-minded people in a relaxed atmosphere, exchange ideas, and learn from the experiences of others. 🍹 **Chilled Atmosphere:** We want you to feel comfortable and enjoy yourself. If this leads to a new business connection or collaboration – even better! 🚀 **Our Goal:** Not only do we aim to help you meet new people and build meaningful connections, but we also want to provide you with practical tools to simplify your entrepreneurial journey and optimize your business. We’re excited to welcome you to our next event in Vienna.

This week's event will be hosted by Sridhar (Srinivasan) one of our regulars, who is rediscovering the joy of being in nature and in community. He enjoys the stimulating interactions that arise from new connections while walking, and hopes that others also find their spark and are moved to flow, that eventually fulfills them. **Walk & Talk** Willst du auch mehr Bewegung in dein Leben bringen? Und dich dabei noch gut unterhalten, so dass die Zeit verfliegt? Dann bist du hier genau richtig, denn mir geht es genauso. Alleine ist langweilig und die Zeit vergeht nicht, daher hab ich mir Walk & Talk überlegt. Inspiriert wurde ich durch die Walk & Talk Gruppe in Hamburg, wo ich mehrere Male dabei war als ich in Hamburg lebte. Unterschiedliche Menschen treffen sich einmal in der Woche für einen flotten Spaziergang und unterhalten sich dabei. Ich liebe es neue Menschen kennenzulernen und auch bekannte Gesichter wiederzusehen, dann geh ich ganz nebenbei und das macht auch noch Spaß.😊 **Walk:** Wir brauchen einfach regelmäßige Bewegung und ich weiß selbst, wie schwierig es ist, diese in den Alltag zu integrieren. Deshalb ist dieser Walk genau richtig. Nach diesem Spaziergang fühlst du dich einfach wohl, fit und entspannt. **Talk:** Das Reden kommt ganz von selbst beim Gehen. Du kannst über alles reden, egal, ob privates oder berufliches, alles was sich ergibt ist willkommen. Und wenn du keinen Bock aufs Reden hast, dann gehst du alleine, auch das ist völlig in Ordnung. **Wie das ganze abläuft:** * Die Teilnahme ist völlig kostenlos. * Wo: U6 Spittelau (im Freien), Richtung Donaukanal, Ausgang Josef-Holaubek-Platz, direkt vor dem Fernwärme-Turm (https://maps.app.goo.gl/XwAayz4FQe2EW8WK9) Wenn du mit der U4 kommst, geh bitte zum Hauptgebäude, wo die Züge und die U6 fahren. * Wann: Wir treffen uns dienstags um 13 Uhr, egal, ob bei Regen, Sturm und Kälte oder bestem Sonnenschein – Walk & Talk findet nahezu JEDE Woche statt außer ich bin mal im Urlaub. * Wir starten pünktlich und beginnen mit einer kurzen Vorstellungsrunde. * Wie gehen am Donaukanal entlang von Höhe Spittelau bis zum Schwedenplatz und zurück. * Ca. 7 Kilometer sind wir unterwegs und unterhalten uns dabei mit interessanten Menschen. Dabei kannst du neue Bekanntschaften schließen, dich inspirieren lassen, von Projekten erzählen oder einfach nur smalltalken und die frische Luft genießen. Alles ist erlaubt. * Nach ca. 1,75 Stunden sind wir wieder am Ausgangspunkt zurück. * Bei einer Teilnahme von über 5 Personen gehen wir in Paaren und wechseln diese alle 10 Min. Wenn du aber lieber alleine gehst, ist das auch vollkommen in Ordnung. * Für alle, die einfach mal etwas Neues ausprobieren wollen. **Bist du bereit?** Dann komm mit! **Start bei U6 Spittelau Ausgang Donaukanal** Nochmal: um **PUNKT 13.00 Uhr dort sein**, denn **nach kurzen Vorstellungsrunde gehen wir gleich los. Sei pünktlich, denn die Gruppe wartet nicht.** Du musst nichts vorbereiten oder dich gar anmelden, komm einfach vorbei. Ausreden gibt es nicht. Geh mit und freu dich auf eine tolle neue Erfahrung. **Wer macht es?** Ich bin Marie Meyer-Marktl und Ideengeberin, Host und Organisatorin von Walk & Talk. Ich unterstütze seit 2019 Menschen dabei Freude ins Arbeitsleben zu bekommen und bin Business und Life Coachin. „Strahle, wenn du an deine Arbeit denkst“, ist meine Vision für jedermann und jedefrau. Privat merkte ich, dass ich endlich wieder mehr Bewegung brauche – und das klappt am besten gemeinsam mit anderen Menschen. Sei dabei bei Walk & Talk und bring Bewegung in dein Leben. **Do you speak English? Then welcome to Walk & Talk!** This event is suited for all people who like to connect to other people and like to walk. The beauty of this regular event is that you are in the nature and you walk around 7 kilometers. In the meantime, if you feel for it, you talk, if not, you just walk. You do something for your health, get to know new people and you will feel much better. It’s FREE, all you need to do is to show up this Tuesday at no later than 1 pm at the U6 Spittelau exit to Donaukanal.

On Tuesday 21.4 at 19:00 I’m inviting you to a gentle sound meditation. It’s a space for rest, clearing your head, calmness, and quiet connection through sound. Everyone is welcome, no prior experience needed. Just come as you are. Feel free to bring a blanket or anything that helps you feel comfortable and warm. After the session, we’ll share a cup of tea and have time to talk and connect. This is a community event, participation is free - donations are welcome.

The excitement, the fun, the drama - experience Maestro Impro(TM), the most famous theatresports format across the world! Improvisors from Vienna’s vibrant improv scene will be joined by international guests to fight for the audience’s favor. The show has an elimination structure, where randomly chosen improvisors play scenes with each other. The directors set up the scenes, which will be scored by the audience. The players given the highest scores continue while those with lower numbers leave the show. This goes on for several rounds until only one improvisor remains - the Maestro. You can also be part of the show - if you want! The directors will host a free warm-up workshop for all contestants to get to know each other. And we invite everyone to join us for this workshop. At the end, we will ask for volunteers and pick a few participants to go on stage with the already set cast. This offer is open for all levels of impro, even beginners! This time the warm-up will be led by our directors Shawn Fisher and Hanna Scharf- If you do not get selected, you will need a ticket to see the show. And since there can only be a few lucky ones, we advise you to buy your tickets now (you get your money back if you are selected): [Buy Ticket](https://maestro.viennaimprov.org/)[!](https://www.yesticket.org/event/de/maestro-impro-comedy-show-08-11-22/) You need to RSVP to this event if you want to participate in the warm-up! The participation in the warm-up does not guarantee a spot in the show, it only gets you a chance.

Welcome to our cozy **The Psychology and Personal Growth Circle** which is part of the Social Book Club! We will meet to discuss the book “**Antifragile**" (426 pages) written by Nassim Nicholas Taleb. The idea is to connect with like minded readers that love to grow and get to know themselves better through reading and especially applying knowledge from books. We meet up once a month and talk about our progress applying knowledge from a certain book and our experience. The event will take place at the volunteer organisation **MUT**. It is an organisation to supports humans, animals and the environment especially in Vienna. MUT or the Social Book Club look forward to some donation to cover the cost of this event. If you would like to help, please bring some cash with you. Book Description: In The Black Swan Taleb outlined a problem; in *Antifragile* he offers a definitive solution: how to gain from disorder and chaos while being protected from fragilities and adverse events. For what he calls the "antifragile" is one step beyond robust, as it benefits from adversity, uncertainty and stressors, just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension. See you then! All the best Sebastian

Dies ist eine Einladung zu einer direkten spirituellen inneren Erfahrung. Viele von uns sind mit dem Wissen vertraut, dass wahres Glück und Frieden in uns selbst sind – Welten, Universen und alle spirituellen Ebenen sind bereits in uns. Wir brauchen sie weder suchen noch erschaffen, uns fehlt nur der Zutritt. Wie gelangen wir zu unserem Reich, das so tief in unserem Inneren verankert ist? In diesem Vortrag wird dargelegt, wie der Schlüssel die Tür zur tiefsten spirituellen Erfahrung von Licht und Klang im Inneren öffnet. Diese Veranstaltung ist kostenlos. Vortragende: Edith Kaplan

**Monthly "Pub Moot" and Lecture Series- *in English*** **This Month’s Topic:** **Eros and the Sacred: The Origins and Meaning of Sexual Reproduction** *Why does sex exist at all? From a biological standpoint, sexual reproduction is expensive, risky, and complicated — so why did life evolve it? In this talk, Nuphar explores the deep origins and biological logic of sexual reproduction and asks what this tells us about desire, polarity, and human connection. Drawing on her background in biology, she examines how the imperatives of reproduction have shaped human behaviour, relationships, and culture — and what the Western Mysteries and pagan traditions have long understood, symbolically and spiritually, about the sacred interplay of masculine and feminine principles.* Pub Moots will generally be held on the **4th Wednesday** of every month. Sometimes there will be exceptions based on what is going on, so make sure to check back here on Meetup for the exact information All are welcome- experienced practioners, newbies, merely curious, Wiccans and Wiccan-curious and practitioners of similar traditions and those who have no idea why they want to come but just do and even those who don't know a thing but simply like Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings and suchlike... :-) **General schedule of the evening:** 19:00- 19:30- Meetup, time to eat and socialize 19:30- 20:30- Lecture and Discussion 20:30-21:00 and beyond- Open discussion and more socializing- eat, drink, and be merry! **Attendance is free** but you will need to buy something at the pub. :-) *(The Pub is old-school Austrian and cash-only, so bring paper money! :-))*

**Hello there! I would like to ask everyone who RSVPs to send me a message here on Meetup and change your profile setting to allow me to reply - this is needed because the message sending to people who RSVPd on Meetup proved to be a disaster and a few days before the event I would like to send you the exact address and ask you to confirm your RSVP. Thank you!** *In the quiet village of Ravenswood Bluff, ‌a demon walks amongst you...* *During a hellish thunderstorm, on the stroke of midnight, there echoes a bone-chilling scream. The townsfolk rush to investigate and find the town storyteller murdered, their body impaled on the hands of the clocktower, blood dripping onto the cobblestones below. A Demon is on the loose, murdering by night and disguised in human form by day. Some have scraps of information. Others have abilities that fight the evil or protect the innocent. But the Demon and its evil minions are spreading lies to confuse and breed suspicion. Will the good townsfolk put the puzzle together in time to execute the true demon and save themselves? Or will evil overrun this once peaceful village?* Everyone is welcome, we will explain the rules before the game! One round is roughly 30-90 minutes and we plan to play several rounds. The language of this event is English. I will send the exact address to the people who RSVP'd - it will close to Westbahnhof. Please only RSVP if you intend to join. See you there! :-)

**A-B-SEE** is a serious, responsible idea; intended strictly for the strong of heart and anti-dogmatic, open-eyed, and courageously curious cinematic adventure seekers. *Apply only if the description fits.* These events center on uncompromising, taboo-free, film art exploration. *Leave your comfort zone outside.* For **[FilmStory](https://www.meetup.com/filmstory/)** regular members only. * Orientation call prior to first date of participation. * Limited to 10 participants per event.

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia

Mental Health, how do you understand it? How can you improve it? How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went? Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence? Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp. This group is hosted by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
