Berlin-based art curator and educator Jenia Yanes invites emerging and mid-career artists to two transformative workshops designed for the realities of the 2026 art world. This two-day intensive is aimed at artists ready to move from a hobbyist position to a professional artistic practice — developing a distinctive voice, a clear artistic mission, a market-aware presence, and a sustainable monetisation strategy through Jenia Yanes’ proprietary hybrid method. ## 21.02.2026 Strategic Foundations * Strategic positioning * Visual language * Artistic identity & mission ## 28.02.2026 Growth & Sustainability * Monetisation models for artists * Institutional and independent growth strategies During the workshops, participants will: * Articulate their artistic position, mission, and core audience * Develop a contextual strategy that bridges inner vision and the external art system * Learn how to integrate galleries, personal branding, merchandise, and digital channels into one coherent strategy * Navigate the post-AI art landscape of 2026, where authorship, narrative, and positioning outweigh technical craft * Gain a clear understanding of how the contemporary art market functions — and their place within it * Formulate an individual development strategy, including open calls, residencies, independent projects, and sustainable monetisation pathways **Booking Details** *Important Note: Please register directly with Jenia Yanes at [www.jeniayanes.com](https://jeniayanes.com/products/artist-career-workshop)* * Participation fee: €39 per workshop * Bundle price: €65 for both sessions * Capacity: 20 artists per workshop * Registration deadline: 20 February

Am letzten Samstag im Monat Februar wollen wir uns wieder treffen im Restaurant Cinque in der Reinhardtstraße 27d um 16 Uhr und ein bisschen netzwerken. Bitte sagt Bescheid, ob ihr wirklich kommt. Bitte beachtet die Speisekarte und dass es etwas teuerer ist 🤔🫣 https://www.ristorante-cinque.de/speisekarten/ Wir werden uns austauschen, vernetzen und schauen, wo wir dich bei deiner Idee unterstützen können, falls du noch nicht gegründet hast. 👜📝 Es kann auch über vermögensverwaltende GmbHs sowie Holdingstrukturen gesprochen werden. 🤑💎 Ich selber habe erst vor wenige Monaten gegründet und kann dir praktische Tipps geben z.B. zum Thema Kosten beim Notar, Amtsgericht, Dauer bis zum Eintrag im Handelsregister und warum es sich manchmal lohnt nicht seine private Adresse als Geschäftsadresse anzugeben. 🤐🧐 Hinweis: Getränke und Speisen zahlt jede Person vor Ort selbst. 🫠

Nice! You are looking for real long time friendship! You might have already lived in Berlin or other big cities and experienced the "Anonymous" culture for a while. Meeting random people over and over and never see the same person again! In order to find "Real Long Term Friendship" in Berlin, do as follows: * You should not care how many people are joining this meetup. You RVSP. Even if only one person is joining. Because if everyone are waiting for everyone else to RVSP, nobody joins and nobody finds a new friend. * You do not care how many people of the opposite sex are joining. You are looking for friends. Finding the best romantic partner in the world, while avoiding not very attractive others, can be your other goal, for another time. Here we are looking for Friends. Real ones. * You are going to risk a very precious property of yours: Your time! Yes, there are thousands of opportunities in Berlin, there might be a rock concert for free, a birthday party you might miss, an important person might call you and invite you spontaneously, but you never find new friends until you decide to risk your time and meet people anyway. "I will check my calendar and get back to you" also does not work. Commit your time and spend it. Trust me, you won't go bankrupt ;-) * You are ready to use your phone as a real phone! You might have been using your phone as a tablet to visit Instagram and Facebook and watch movies. But if you want to find friends, you must know that people might take your phone number and give you theirs. That means they will Call you! And you have to pick up the phone and answer it. If you want to find new friends, you must be ready to do something really hard for the first time after years: Call people first, and if they called you: Answer your phone! * You are going to meet some people twice! That's the point of friendship. We already can experience random encounters with random people in random places one at a time. But that is not called friendship. If you want friends, you must be ready to meet the same person more than once. If you agree with above, RVSP and COME! You will meet other people who think the same way. P.S: Now that you've read all the way down to here, I suggest you [watch this animation](https://player.vimeo.com/video/547249272?h=22f3dd0f6f).

Hey everyone! I’m organising a co-working + socialising session for all of us who like to work on something (e.g. our own project, freelance or remote work) but don't feel like sitting alone at home. 🙂 To ensure that we have both **socialising** AND **working**, we will be using the so called “Pomodoro” technique: **50min of deep work** (silent), followed by **10min of break** to socialise. Then repeat! If you get into flow, you're also welcome to skip the breaks. It’s an effective way to stay focused - you can read more about it [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomodoro_Technique). Anyone from any background is welcome, whatever project you are working on or whatever is your personal background. I (the host) speak English and German, so either is fine :-) ——————————————————- AGENDA: * **15min Intro** * Get to know everyone, talk about what you will work on today * **Pomodoro Session** (3x) - *Each Pomodoro session consists* *of...* * ...**50min** of uninterrupted “deep work” (no talking, no interruptions, no phones) * ...**10min** of break: share your progress with others, talk about what you are stuck on etc. * Repeat * Conclude and celebrate your progress Share your progress, socialise and get to know others 😊 ———— We'll be at the Social Hub Berlin (they have a food menu in case you get hungry). The structured part will end at 2:30pm, but you're welcome to stay longer, go for lunch together, or leave earlier. See you there 🩵 **\*\*We'll reserve the long table. Please update your RSVP in advance if you can't attend!\*\***

The GLOBALS Tech Festival 2026 (#GSTF26) on March 1, 2026 in Barcelona is more than just a conference; it is a dynamic gathering where the global tech and growth community comes to connect, learn, and evolve. Think of it as a melting pot where founders, CxOs, operators, investors, and ecosystem builders converge in a relaxed and friendly setting, with the spirit of learning and connecting at its core. 🙂 Taking place in Barcelona right before MWC & 4YFN, this year’s GLOBALS Tech Festival builds on the legacy of the former Global Sales Tech Festival and takes it to the next level: from “just sales” to growth across tech, SaaS, e-commerce, finance, telco, health, marketing and edtech. You will spend a full day surrounded by people who actually get what you are building: exchanging playbooks, testing ideas, and forging collaborations in a laid-back but high-intent environment. Expect stages, curated sessions, and serendipitous encounters that feel more like a festival than a conference. The focus of GLOBALS Tech Festival 2026 is on fostering genuine connections and exchanging fresh, practical ideas over real conversations, accompanied by good food and drinks. Expect to leave buzzing with new contacts, strategies you can implement on Monday, and a renewed hunger to scale your impact. Let’s create an unforgettable experience filled with inspiring people and breakthrough insights. Key Highlights 💡 Content-Driven Insights Absorb cutting-edge perspectives on tech, AI, growth and go-to-market from global experts, founders, C-level leaders, and trainers. 🌐 Network Expansion Build valuable connections across a curated professional community of tech entrepreneurs, investors, and ecosystem players from Europe and beyond. 🎉 Enjoy the Experience Immerse yourself in a vibrant atmosphere that fuses learning, collaboration, and entertainment, all in the heart of Barcelona before the world lands for MWC.

Each hub is tailored to offer a deep dive into a specific dimension of tech-driven growth, so every attendee can design a journey that fits their role and ambition. Event Format A compact, high-energy festival day including: Multiple stages with keynotes, panels, and fireside chats Roundtables and small-group sessions for honest, tactical exchange Curated networking & matchmaking moments An afterparty to lock in the strongest connections of the day (Exact schedule and program blocks are available on the official website.) This Year’s Theme “Celebrating Growth” In 2026, we zoom out from pure sales and look at growth in all its forms: Growth of companies (revenue, teams, markets) Growth of people (skills, leadership, resilience) Growth of impact (AI, sustainability, and tech as a force for good) We explore how technology, data, and human experience blend to build resilient, sustainable, and globally connected businesses.

WQC has weekly Thursday night social nights at the Westerville Java Central. Come and grab a coffee and connect with the community: low stakes, chill environment, and tasty drinks. No registration is required; come as you are.

(Note: RSVPing here on meetup does NOT reserve your seat. To do that, you’ll need to register at our website, **[HERE](https://www.coreerocks.com/Events.aspx?ID=Columbus-in-person-chapter-meeting-Your-2026-Buy-Box-Successful-Rentals-101-14-3-3-2026)**.) Let’s be honest. In 2026, you can’t use 2023 strategies and “hope” a deal works out. Demand for rentals, wholesale deals, retail deals, and even loans has changed, and that means that the most active, experienced investors have changed the way they do deals (and maybe even the kinds of deals they’ll do). Here at COREE, our job is to shortcut your learning curve by introducing you to the people and concepts you need to take the shortest path from here to financial freedom, and we think you’ll agree that this meeting is a no-brainer, if you’re serious about making wealth-building deals this year. Here’s the detailed agenda: From 6:00–7:00 p.m., From 7:30–9:00 p.m., Agenda: 5:00–6:00 p.m. Complimentary Light Dinner & Networking 6:00–7:00 p.m\*\*. New Investor Meeting: Basics of Making Money in Rentals with Vena Jones-Cox\*\*. If you’re planning to buy rentals today, you have to know how to evaluate the REAL income and expenses before you make an offer. If you’re new, you’ll finally understand how rentals really produce profit. If you’ve been around a while, you’ll see how today’s numbers change the math. 7:00 –7:30 **Buy-Sell-Trade (Members Only)** Bring your deals, money, buyer lists, referrals, and requests. Fast-moving. Bring flyers or business cards. Guests get a quick orientation with Executive Director Vena Jones-Cox. 7:30–9:00 p.m. **Main Meeting: Your 2026 Buy Box: What Experienced Investors are Buying in 2026 (and what they won’t touch).** Our panel of active, experienced investors will lay out their 2026 buy boxes. Not hypotheticals. Not “in theory.” What they are actually buying—and what they won’t touch. They’ll share: * What property types investors are actively pursuing * What strategies they’ve stopped using * The exact numbers they require before they say yes * How insurance, taxes, and rates have tightened the buy box * What instantly disqualifies a deal in today’s market * How to define your own 2026 buy box based on capital and risk tolerance Members and non-members at any level of knowledge and experience are welcome—as long as you’re serious about real estate, value experience-based, no B.S. education, and want to give as much as you get. Remember, to actually reserve your seat, you have to go **[HERE](https://www.coreerocks.com/Events.aspx?ID=Columbus-in-person-chapter-meeting-Your-2026-Buy-Box-Successful-Rentals-101-14-3-3-2026)** and register on our website!

This is the best way to meet new people, and it works! Just ask the thousands of people that have met at our events and had successful relationships and marriages. **WHAT DOES IT COST?** We put a lot of time and effort into creating the best singles events possible, so we collect a fee for our hard work. Our events are an excellent value at about $3 per introduction. Get your ticket for the best singles event in town. **NOTE FOR NEWCOMERS:** We post our events on various platforms. Our events often sell out, so expect plenty of fellow singles, regardless of the numbers you see here :) So what are you waiting for? Join us for some fun conversation with great new people... and maybe something more! Who will you meet? **GET TICKETS:** [https://www.pre-dating.com/columbus-speed-dating/?utm_source=meetup&utm_medium=event_listing&utm_campaign=meetup](https://www.pre-dating.com/columbus-speed-dating/?utm_source=meetup&utm_medium=event_listing&utm_campaign=meetup) #singles #singlesevents #speeddating #love #relationships
