E-Business Owners

ENG🇬🇧 Hello, We invite you to an open meeting for anyone interested in business, projects, and personal growth. This is not a lecture or a formal event, but a live space for communication in an open mic format. Here you can meet people, discuss ideas, share your experience, or simply gain a deeper understanding of how business and projects work. The meeting is suitable both for entrepreneurs and for those who are just starting their journey or want to explore this field. You can come with an idea, a project, or simply curiosity — and find people you’d like to grow with. We’ll talk about marketing, economics, project development, and modern opportunities, but most importantly, we’ll create a space for dialogue and meaningful connections. If this format of thoughtful communication and exchange resonates with you, We’ll be glad to see you there. CZ🇨🇿 Dobrý den, Zveme vás na otevřené setkání pro všechny, které zajímá byznys, projekty a osobní rozvoj. Nejde o přednášku ani formální akci, ale o živý prostor pro komunikaci ve formátu otevřeného mikrofonu. Můžete se zde seznámit s novými lidmi, sdílet své nápady a zkušenosti nebo lépe pochopit, jak funguje svět byznysu a projektů. Setkání je vhodné jak pro podnikatele, tak i pro ty, kteří jsou teprve na začátku své cesty nebo se chtějí do této oblasti více ponořit. Můžete přijít s vlastním nápadem, projektem nebo jen se zájmem — a najít lidi, se kterými budete chtít růst. Budeme mluvit o marketingu, ekonomice, rozvoji projektů a současných příležitostech, ale především vytvoříme prostor pro dialog a navazování nových kontaktů. Pokud vás tento formát smysluplné komunikace a sdílení oslovuje, budeme rádi, když dorazíte.
