CONFĂRENCE BEE - PARIS
đ Kovalys Connect lance lâopportunitĂ© B.E.E (Build, Execute, Earn)
BEE FREE. BEE CONFORTABLE. BEE YOUR OWN BOSS.
Dans un monde instable, lâhumain aussi peut (re)devenir autonome : bĂątir sa ruche, produire ses propres ressources et ne plus dĂ©pendre dâun seul revenu, ni dâun seul canal dâacquisition.
đ LâopportunitĂ© B.E.E est nĂ©e pour faciliter ce processus.
Tu es dĂ©jĂ entrepreneur et tu veux accĂ©lĂ©rer ta croissance avec lâIA et les outils digitaux ?
Tu es salarié·e, retraité·e ou en reconversion, et tu veux retrouver un vrai pouvoir dâachat grĂące au digital ?
Une mĂ©thode et une communautĂ© tâaident Ă crĂ©er ou consolider un business rentable et durable, Ă ton rythme.
Les confĂ©rences Kovalys Connect tâapportent les connaissances et les opportunitĂ©s nĂ©cessaires pour gagner ton autonomie financiĂšre Ă lâĂšre digitale.
đŻ Tu construis ton systĂšme.
đ Tu exĂ©cutes ton plan.
đž Tu gagnes ta libertĂ©.
Tu travailles pour toi, mais avec nous.
Ensemble, on est plus forts.
đ Il est temps de devenir lâabeille de ton propre Ă©cosystĂšme.
Bienvenue dans les conférences Kovalys Connect.
\-\-\-
đ Pourquoi participer Ă ces confĂ©rences ?
1 â đ LâINFLATION SâEST INSTALLĂE : La vie coĂ»te plus cher
+21âŻ% sur lâalimentation (2021â2024)
+30âŻ% sur lâĂ©nergie
+13,6âŻ% sur les loyers
Airbnb Ă Paris : x2,5 en 5 ans
+33âŻ% sur la baguette
MĂȘme si lâinflation ralentit, les prix restent durablement Ă©levĂ©s.
Les prix ne reviendront pas Ă leur niveau dâavant.
đ ConcrĂštement ?
Tu gagnes 2âŻ000âŻâŹ/mois ?
Avec lâinflation moyenne de +25âŻ% sur lâĂ©nergie et lâalimentation, ton pouvoir dâachat rĂ©el est tombĂ© Ă 1âŻ500âŻâŹ/mois.
âĄïž Il te manque 500âŻâŹ/mois juste pour maintenir ton niveau de vie dâil y a 3 ans.
2 â đž LES SALAIRES STAGNENT : Les revenus ne suivent plus
1 Français sur 7 vit avec moins de 1âŻ216 âŹ/mois
50âŻ% des salariĂ©s gagnent moins de 2âŻ090 âŹ/mois
đ Selon lâInsee :
Niveau de vie mĂ©dian (couple avec 2 enfants) : 2âŻ432 âŹ/mois
Niveau de vie confortable estimĂ© : 4âŻ258 âŹ/mois
âĄïž Ăcart : 1âŻ826 âŹ/mois (soit -42,9âŻ% Ă combler)
â
Conclusion : Une réalité économique
En 2025â2026, pour suivre le coĂ»t rĂ©el de la vie, il te faudra +40âŻ% de revenus en plus.
SalariĂ© Ă 2âŻ000 âŹ/mois ? Il te faut +800 âŹ/mois de revenus complĂ©mentaires.
Entrepreneur Ă 100âŻ000 âŹ/an ? Il te faut +40âŻ000 âŹ/an de croissance annuelle.

âĄïž Selon le Credit Suisse, ce nombre va augmenter de +41âŻ% dâici 2026.

Entrepreneurs Coworking in a Boat
Vous avez un business en ligne ? Un site internet ? Une boutique shopify ? Des produits sur Amazon ? Ou sinon, vous avez une idée, un projet ?
Venez alors nous rejoindre pour 4 heures de "Deep Work" dans le café de la péniche Annette K.
Le Deep Work repose sur l'Ă©limination (ou, Ă dĂ©faut, la rĂ©duction) des tĂąches qui ne sont pas essentielles pour rester concentrĂ© sur ce qui est important. Sachez que nous ne pouvons pas ĂȘtre au maximum de notre efficacitĂ© pendant plus de 3 ou 4 heures par jour!
Nous travaillerons sur un nombre de sĂ©ances dĂ©finies â° đ» (50min, 45min, 40min, 35min, 30min, 40min): Total = 4 heures; avec des petites pauses de 10min entre les sĂ©ances
Pendant les pauses, nous nous échangerons sur principaux défis de l'entrepreneuriat, les challenges de chacun, comment les surmonter, comment vendre plus, comment scaler son business, etc.
Ă bientĂŽt!
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
Do you have an online business? A website ? A Shopify store? Products on Amazon? Or simply an idea, a project that you'd like to work on?
Then come and join us for 4 hours of "Deep Work" at the coffee shop of the boat Annette K.
Deep Work relies on eliminating (or failing that, reducing) non-essential tasks to stay focused on what's important. Keep in mind that we cannot be at our maximum efficiency for more than 3 or 4 hours a day!
During the breaks, we will discuss the challenges of entrepreneurship, the challenges that each one of us is facing, how to overcome them, how to sell more, how to scale your business, etc.
See you soon!

## **Broke to 8 Figures: Live Panel + Open Q&A with 3 Young Investors Who Built Real Wealth Through Real Estate**
A decade ago, none of them were âset.â
10 years ago, these three werenât millionaires.
They werenât influencers.
They were broke, doubting themselves and fighting to make their first deal workâŠjust like a lot of people trying to get into real estate today.
Now, two of the Columbus Investors Clubâs founders, **Tiffany and** **Josh High**, sit down with **Austin Rutherford**⊠a fellow Columbus native who went from parking cars as a valet to owning a **$30M+ real estate portfolio.**
Together, theyâve flipped and wholesaled **thousands of homes**, raised **millions in private money**, and built businesses that run without them in the day to day⊠creating both wealth and freedom before 35.
This isnât a highlight reel. Itâs a real conversation about what it actually takes to build something that lasts⊠the fears they had to face, the habits that changed everything, and the systems that got them there.
Youâll laugh, youâll take notes, and youâll walk away seeing whatâs truly possible no matter where youâre starting from.
**What Youâll Learn**
* How three broke twenty-somethings built 7â8 figure real estate businesses
* The mindset shifts that separate wishful thinking from real wealth
* How to raise private money even if youâve never done a deal
* Whatâs working right now in flipping, wholesaling, and building a portfolio
* How to create financial and time freedom through systems and people
**Open Q&A - Ask Them Anything About**
* Raising private money with confidence
* Finding and structuring profitable deals
* Getting past fear, self-doubt, or âIâm not ready yetâ
* Scaling your business without burning out
* Building a team that actually performs
**Who Youâll Hear From**
**Austin Rutherford** â From valet to a $30M+ rental portfolio. He has flipped and wholesaled hundreds of houses alongside his rental portfolio and recently got into commercial deals.
**Tiffany & Josh High** â Founders of **Heels Homes** and **Results Driven REI**. Theyâve built multiple 7- and 8-figure companies, including a fully virtual real estate operation closing 250+ deals a year. Through Results Driven REI, they help experienced investors install the people, processes, and infrastructure needed to build a truly self-managing company.

One for the Ages: Columbus Museum of Art / GemĂŒt Biergarten
**History**
The Columbus Museum of Art traces its roots to 1878, when it was founded as the Columbus Gallery of Fine Arts, becoming the first art museum chartered in Ohio. A group of civic leaders established it to bring touring exhibitions and build a public collection. In 1887, it merged with the Columbus Art School (now CCAD) fostering a long partnership in arts education. Initially without a permanent home, the museum operated from temporary spaces until 1919, when art patron Francis C. Sessions deeded his Victorian mansion on East Broad Street to house the growing institution.
As collections expanded in the early 20th century, the need for a dedicated building became clear. The Sessions mansion was demolished, and a new Italian Renaissance Revival structure was erected on the same site, opening to the public in 1931. This elegant building, with its grand steps and arches, remains the museum's core today and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1992. Key early acquisitions, like the Ferdinand Howald Collection of modernist works, helped establish its focus on American and European art.
In the late 20th and early 21st centuries, the museum evolved significantly. It added the Ross Wing in 1974 for exhibitions and renamed itself the Columbus Museum of Art in 1978 during its centennial. A major renovation and expansion completed in 2015 introduced the Margaret M. Walter Wing and Center for Creativity, emphasizing interactive experiences. In 2018, the donation of the Pizzuti Collection and its Short North building expanded the museum's reach into contemporary art, solidifying its role as a dynamic cultural hub.
The Columbus Museum of Art boasts a strong collection of late 19th- and early 20th-century European modern art, featuring well-known masters like Claude Monet, whose Impressionist landscapes capture light and atmosphere in ways familiar to many. Visitors can also encounter works by Henri Matisse, renowned for his bold use of color, and Edgar Degas, famous for his graceful depictions of ballerinas and everyday scenes. The museum's early Cubist holdings include pieces by Pablo Picasso, offering glimpses into his revolutionary fragmented style that reshaped modern art.
On the American side, the collection highlights iconic figures such as Edward Hopper, whose evocative paintings of urban solitude and quiet American life are widely recognized, and Norman Rockwell, celebrated for his heartfelt illustrations of everyday Americana that have appeared on countless magazine covers. These accessible works by household-name artists provide an inviting entry point for those new to art museums, blending European innovation with distinctly American storytelling.
**Summary**
For this event, we will tour the [Columbus Museum of Art](https://www.columbusmuseum.org/), which is always free on Sundays. Afterward, we will head over to the nearby, highly-rated, and popular GemĂŒt Biergarten for drinks and food.
Columbus's art museum is not large, and we won't need to rush through in order to see everything. However, it's a little windy (with a long "i") and maze-like in spots, and if you've never gone through it before, it can be a little confusing at first.
**Tickets and Pricing**
The Museum is free on Sundays.
**Parking**
The short answer here is that you can park for free (in the Safe Auto lot) when you visit the Museum on weekends.
The longer answer is that the Museum has a dedicated parking lot, whose entrance and exit are on E Gay St, just north of Broad St. You can see this parking lot [here on Google Maps](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Columbus+Museum+Of+Art+Parking/@39.9648853,-82.9882364,18.67z/data=!4m14!1m7!3m6!1s0x883888d20177f111:0xbf595a71d9d8c8c5!2sColumbus+Museum+of+Art!8m2!3d39.9642074!4d-82.9878972!16zL20vMDM0Z3F6!3m5!1s0x883888d21f05e00f:0xb72a56e4ac2d4fba!8m2!3d39.9651763!4d-82.9881746!16s%2Fg%2F11f3pdx3tx?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MTIwOS4wIKXMDSoKLDEwMDc5MjA3MUgBUAM%3D).
This parking has normally been $7, unless you buy something either in the Museum's gift shop or café, in which case it's $5 (you have to bring your receipt to the Museum's front desk to get this discount).
However, the Museum is currently in the process of upgrading their parking lot's intercom (or some such), and until such time as this is completed, parking in this lot is free. Once this upgrade is complete, though, the charge is likely to increase from $7 to $10.
This upgrade is supposed to be done by the time we run this event, but given how these things work, I wouldn't be totally surprised if it's not complete by then. You'll know the lot is free if the gate arms to both the entrance and exit are fixed in a raised position when you arrive.
However, there's a large parking lot for Safe Auto on the other side of N Washington Ave, between Boone St and Hutton Pl. You can see this parking lot [here on Google Maps](https://www.google.com/maps/place/39%C2%B057'54.4%22N+82%C2%B059'13.9%22W/@39.9651069,-82.9884087,18z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m4!3m3!8m2!3d39.965105!4d-82.987191?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MTIwOS4wIKXMDSoKLDEwMDc5MjA3MUgBUAM%3D).
Visitors to the Museum may always park for free in this lot on weekends.
**The End of History**
After completing our dissertation in [Art Appreciation](https://www.facebook.com/groups/879880336006462/posts/1734229683904852/), we'll head over to the highly-rated [GemĂŒt Biergarten](https://www.gemutbiergarten.com/) for [drinks and food](https://www.gemutbiergarten.com/#full-menu). The brewery is located in [Olde Towne East](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Olde+Towne+East,+Columbus,+OH/@39.9600896,-82.9935095,14z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x883888c29b9d98cb:0x55fc96810facc832!8m2!3d39.9579938!4d-82.9761254!16s%2Fm%2F026vlz4?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MTIwOS4wIKXMDSoKLDEwMDc5MjA3MUgBUAM%3D), and its actual address is [734 Oak St, Columbus, OH 43205](https://www.google.com/maps/place/734+Oak+St,+Columbus,+OH+43205/@39.9633755,-82.9808618,16z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x883888c53426d289:0x4aec638d8a5195d4!8m2!3d39.9633755!4d-82.9808618!16s%2Fg%2F11c4wy250w?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MTIwOS4wIKXMDSoKLDEwMDc5MjA3MUgBUAM%3D).
GemĂŒt Biergarten has a free parking lot that isn't small but also isn't huge. Street parking, however, is always free across Columbus on [Sundays and holidays](https://www.columbus.gov/files/sharedassets/city/v/1/public-service/right-of-way-permit/on-street-parking-out-of-service-policy-and-procedure-final-8.15.2022-signed.pdf), so I think we'll be okay with parking.
The bigger issue may be the weather. The brewery has a good-sized outdoor patio that is covered and heated in the winter. However, that doesn't mean this patio will be warm.
The inside of the brewery is "okay-sized," but again, the brewery is popular and by the time we get there, we may have no choice but to sit outside. If it's cold, I can and will ask them to fire up some of their additional outdoor heaters, which I think should be enough, but please bring something to keep you warm just in case we end up outside.
Finally, while food at the Biergarten can be a little overpriced, in my experience it is excellent, and you are likely to enjoy whatever you get. We should be there by 1:00 if you can't make the Museum and just want to meet us for drinks.
