Build & Connect Meetup mit Expertentalk: "Wann macht Funding Sinn?"
Build & Connect Meetup mit Expertentalk: "Wann macht Funding Sinn?"
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:** 🌟 **Expertentalk von Jule Wilhelm (Gründerin fundraising fempire)** Wann macht Funding Sinn und wann nicht? Bootstrapping vs. Fremdkapital Funding gilt oft als das ultimative Ziel für Startups, dabei ist Kapital kein Erfolgssiegel, sondern ein Werkzeug. In diesem Impulsvortrag geht es darum, wann externe Finanzierung wirklich sinnvoll ist, wann Bootstrapping die stärkere Strategie sein kann und welche typischen Denkfehler Gründer:innen bei dem Thema machen. 🤝 **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. This free event is tailored for self-employed individuals looking to enrich their journey with fresh perspectives, valuable connections, and inspiring insights. Of course, those still in the planning stages of self-employment are also warmly invited! Here’s what awaits you at our meet-up: 🌟 **Expert Talk - Jule Wilhelm (Fundraising Fempire)** When Does Funding Make Sense, and When Doesn't It? Bootstrapping vs. External Funding Funding is often seen as the ultimate goal for startups, but capital isn't a guarantee of success—it's a tool. This keynote talk explores when external funding truly makes sense, when bootstrapping might be the better strategy, and what common mistakes founders make when considering this topic. 🤝 **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. Let’s learn, grow, and shape the journey of self-employment together. **Follow us!** [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/82057598/admin/dashboard/) \| [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/gruenderio/?next=%2F) \| [Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Kyi26Bl7v8S6MwZb5VJNmT) **Disclaimer:** This event will be recorded with photo, video, and audio material.

From Spotify-Wrapped like summaries, over instructional content that evolves with your codebase, to personalized videos for tens of thousands of users ... all generated programmatically. No video editor app, no ui clicking ... just beautiful code and open source (and maybe vibe coding)! <3 Batteries included: collaboration & versioning in Git, review changes via pull requests, batch-generating variations or integrating video creation directly into pipelines and CI systems **21:00: Meeting fellow Flutternauts**, last bits of food, a drink, friendly or heated discussions (about get, riverpod and bloc ;) ) in a cozy atmosphere. **21:45 - 22:00: Wrapping up**, last drinks We are looking forward to meeting you there! **\*\*WANT TO DO A TALK?\*\*** We are always looking for (short and long) talks!

David started Sentry as an open-source side project in 2008. We started in a small community — the Django web framework — and over time expanded our technology to support dozens of other platforms, including browser JavaScript and mobile applications. Fast forward to today, we're a $90M Series E company with a $3B valuation and 200+ employees on a mission to help developers write better software faster, so we can get back to enjoying technology. As one can see, the adventure continues to be exciting as we bring our developer-first Application Monitoring to more customers and industries worldwide. Consider us for the ride!

This is where: * Deals get discussed * Partnerships get formed * Funding relationships start * Problems get solved faster Bring your family. Build your network.
