Glamorous Afterwork: Business Talkshow, Social & Afterparty

Details

Join us for an evening where business meets entertainment, insights meet inspiration, and connections turn into meaningful relationships.

🥳 An Unforgettable Evening of Business, Conversations, and Connections.

This is not your typical business event — it’s an elevated social evening designed to bring together ambitious minds, dynamic leaders, and creative thinkers.

Whether you’re an entrepreneur, professional, founder, or innovator — this is your space to connect, recharge, and grow alongside like-minded people in a vibrant, welcoming atmosphere.

💬 Social Hour to Spark New Connections

We begin the night with a social hour — a relaxed, informal time where guests are encouraged to mingle, network, and simply enjoy great company.

🗣️ Live Interview with a Business Leader

Once the room is alive with energy and conversation, we shift gears and invite you to gather for the highlight of the night — a live interview with a guest business expert or industry leader, hosted in an engaging, talk-show style format.

🎙️ Guest speaker: Khaled Ismail

Khaled is a pragmatic business leader with a 30-year career in marketing, branding , public affairs and communications in Europe, Central Asia, Middle East and Africa region.

He is currently the CEO and founding partner of toughlove advisors and is an internationally recognised keynote speaker and author (This Tickles Me and Made With Toughlove).

👜 His Career & Background

His career started in advertising and continued into international sales, marketing and branding in FMCG (B2C) and the food packaging industry (B2B), in companies such as The Coca-cola company and Tetra Pak.

He is the international chairman of the marketing society. He is also an active investor in technology, beverages, advisory, hospitality, sports marketing and banking.

🎯 What to expect?

✅ Hear raw, real, and unfiltered insights from someone who’s been in the trenches.
✅ Learn about their journey, mindset, challenges, and the pivotal moments that shaped their career.
✅ Get practical wisdom and personal stories you won’t find in a podcast or on YouTube.

This is more than just a talk — it’s an immersive experience designed to inspire, educate, and ignite your own ambitions.

🎶 Soulful Afterparty with Live Music

After the lights dim on the interview, the spotlight turns toward a different kind of performance. It’s time to relax, unwind, and celebrate the evening with our carefully curated afterparty experience.

⚫ Enjoy a live singer performance that fills the space with soulful melodies and smooth vocals.
⚫ The music becomes the backdrop to deeper conversations, dancing, or just soaking in the atmosphere.
⚫ Whether you’re still networking, sharing your takeaways, or just vibing with new friends — this is your moment to let loose.

It’s the perfect way to wrap up the evening — relaxed yet elevated, social yet meaningful.

🌟 Why You Should Attend

This evening is built on one simple idea: connection is currency. Whether it’s through stories, conversations, or shared experiences — the right moment with the right person can lead to powerful things.

🤝 Learn from those ahead of you and find motivation in their stories.
🤝 Build meaningful relationships that go beyond exchanging business cards.
🤝 Step into a room where ambition and authenticity are both welcomed.
🤝 Leave feeling more inspired, more connected, and more energized than when you walked in.
