Founders Unfiltered: Learn from Real-World Businesses
**📗 About This Event**
Let's clear something up: most business events are theoretical. You sit through a lecture, take some notes, and go home to the same problems. This session is designed to fix that. It's a friendly, uncorporate gathering for independents focused on real execution.
**⚠️ A Quick Heads-Up**
After two exciting events and many valuable conversations with you, it felt like the right moment to take the next step. Season Two begins now! This season, the Circle opens up even more. Besides our usual format, we’re inviting founders who are actively building and running their businesses to share how things work for them in practice - in their own words, from their **own experience**. Our focus shifts to real examples, real workflows, and open knowledge sharing from people who are doing the work day by day.
**🗓️ The Agenda & What You'll Learn**
We've invited two founders from two completely different worlds to share their practical blueprints. No theory. Just real mechanics.
* **17:45:** Arrive, grab a drink, and connect
* **18:10 - 18:30:** Building a hands-on business from raw idea to physical product. We dive into the world of professional engraving. How do you handle logistics, craftsmanship, and delivering a tangible product in a digital world? This is business you can touch.
* **🎁 18:30 – 18:35:** A super secret surprise
* **18:35 – 18:55:** Ugly ads win. We ignore polished marketing and only trust raw, real reviews. That is User Generated Content (UGC). But how do you scale "authenticity"? We are showcasing our a AI platform built specifically to generate these high-performing assets. We’ll cover why low-fi content converts, the insights behind the engine, and how to automate trust.
* **18:55 – 19:00:** Future plans of CircleBudapest
* **19:00 – 20:00:** Genuine networking & conversations with quality food and drinks
* 20:00 onwards – Drinks at a nearby bar: relaxed chats, nothing serious
🔍 Who Is This For? This is for the freelancers, founders, and independents in Budapest who are tired of “hustle culture” speeches. It's for people who want to see under the hood of other companies. Whether you sell physical goods or digital services, you’ll learn the operational reality of running a business today.
**📍 Location & The After-Party**
We'll be hosting at the fantastic KLUSTER Coworking space. After the official part ends, a big table will be reserved for us at an undisclosed secret location nearby for those who want to continue the conversation.
**⚖️ The Legal Bit**
Our imaginary lawyers wanted us to mention again that we'll be taking some photos. By attending, you consent to this. Thanks for reading — cannot wait for you to join!

Csendes Könyvklub - Fővárosi Szabó Ervin Könyvtár
English below
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
Tarts egy kis szünetet a hétköznapi rohanásban és gyere el csendes könyvklubunkba a Fővárosi Szabó Ervin Könyvtárba. Hozd magaddal az aktuális könyvedet, merülj el benne egy órácskát, majd oszd meg velünk, amit olvastál.
🗺 Hogyan találsz meg minket:
Az eseményt a földszinti tanulótérben tartjuk: a könyvtárba belépve haladj tovább a liftekig, de mielőtt elérnéd őket, fordulj balra a mosdók irányába. Az ott található lépcsőkön gyere fel fél emeletet.
💡 Részvételi díj:
Az eseményen való részvételhez nem szükséges könyvtári regisztráció vagy beiratkozás, csak jelezd, hogy a Csendes Könyvklubra jössz.
🥤 Étel-ital:
Kérünk, zárható üvegben hozz magaddal innivalót, ha az esemény alatt megszomjaznál. Másból inni, valamint a teremben enni nem lehet, de az épület átriumában üzemel kávézó.
🕑 A menetrend:
17:00–17:30 – Érkezés és bemutakozókör: mit fogsz olvasni?
17:30–18:30 – Csendes olvasás
18:30–19:30 – Választható beszélgetés a könyvekről (magyarul)
Extra:
Az esemény után igény szerint teázás-sörözés-borozás az [Otthonká](https://maps.app.goo.gl/kX5SvetWaD2szKSW7)ban, hogy ne csak könyvekről beszélgessünk! Ha csak erre jönnél, írj üzenetet, hogy ne kerüljük el egymást.
Fontos: Ez egy teljesen magyar nyelvű esemény. A bemutatkozó kör az elején és a kötetlen beszélgetés a végén is magyarul zajlik.
Az olvasás csendje persze mindenkié, így nyugodtan hozhatsz bármilyen nyelvű könyvet.
A részvétel ingyenes, de a helyek korlátozottak. A helyedet a hivatalos Meetup eseményen való regisztrációval tudod biztosítani:
Várunk szeretettel!

Please note: This is a Hungarian-language event. The introductions at the beginning and the optional discussion at the end are held in Hungarian.

There is no formal agenda, just good vibes, real conversations, and a few tables reserved for entrepreneurs, freelancers, and creatives who understand the ups and downs of building your own path.
We look forward to meeting you.

Energizing Walk for Busy People!
Join our weekly walking meetup to have fun, maintain a healthy lifestyle, meet new people, and enjoy the weather! We meet Saturdays at 10am, halfway between the Reston *Container Store* and *Not Your Average Joes* (by the metal benches), leaving no later than 10:05.
Every week, rain or shine, we start by walking along the Green Trail to reach Lake Anne Community Center. Once there, we pause for water/bio (often staying a few minutes extra from April-November, due to the local Farmer's Market), and then we circle Lake Anne and head back to our starting point. It's roughly 3-4 miles and takes about an hour and a half.
Afterwards, some members will often head to *Not Your Average Joes* or another local restaurant for a quick drink/meal before tackling the day.
This event is open to all ages and fitness levels. Dogs are welcome, and we recommend dressing for the weather (umbrella, water, snow shoes, hat, etc.) since we'll walk rain or shine. Also, feel free to bring a friend!
By signing up, you accept and assume all risks and responsibilities with this activity, and nobody will be held liable.
