#6 Female Networking over coffee ☕ Connection Circle March Edition | Budapest
Most professional events feel like a job interview.
Most social hangouts feel like aimless small talk.
**We are here to do the opposite!**
🌟 WHY JOIN?
At the **Women’s Coffee Network**, we offer a non-traditional experience where you don't have to fight for your voice, perfect an elevator pitch, or navigate a room of strangers alone. We created this circle because **we don't believe in the hustle; we believe in the power of a steady anchor.**
This is a facilitated experience, not just a meeting.
We don’t just book a table; we curate a journey. Working with the precision of a designer and the empathy of a coach, we’ve built this soft sanctuary where **the superficial is skipped** and **the high-fidelity connection begins**. We're here to share personal stories and build professional alliances.
👉 To secure your spot, please [register via our Luma page](https://luma.com/6t835215)
🎀 WHO IS THIS FOR?
⋆☕︎ ˖ It's a **female-only community** because we have our unique way to express ourselves, struggles in the business world, and jokes only other women can understand.
⋆☕︎ ˖ If the idea of a meetup with 50 people makes you want to stay home, this circle is for you! We gather in **small, intimate groups** — to meet enough new people to have a deep conversation, but not so many that you feel anxious or overwhelmed.
⋆☕︎ ˖ Whether you are leading a corporation, building a creative empire, or navigating the quiet uncertainty of a career transition, you have a seat at our table. The **diversity of professional backgrounds** makes our circle special with shared wisdom.
⋆☕︎ ˖ Our **soft-flow dialogue** ensures that no bravery is required to be heard. You don’t have to be the loudest in the room to be the most impactful. Here, your silence is respected, and your voice is gently invited.
WHAT TO EXPECT?
* A **guided start** where every woman is seen and heard. You introduce yourself saying whatever you feel like sharing in a way that is comfortable to you.
* We use our **custom-designed materials** to move past titles and discover the humans behind the roles.
* A **verified circle** of women where you can be professionally ambitious and personally vulnerable at the same time.
* Leave with **full batteries**, meaningful new professional bridges, and the support of women who truly *get it*.

The Unfiltered Coffee: Real Conversation for Women in Budapest
What does success look like to you on a random Tuesday? What is an invisible talent you have that doesn't appear on your LinkedIn?
These are the conversations we have at our table. We aren’t here for surface-level networking, no. Our mission is to level up the professional experience for women in Budapest, diving into the important things that the corporate world often ignores.
COME JOIN US IF YOU'RE
* **Building your Budapest circle**, weather you're a local or a newcomer (expat), ready to make this city feel like home.
* **Hungry for high-fidelity connections** that go deeper than a business card.
* **Eager to swap stories** with women who see the world differently than you do.
* **Looking for your people** and a supportive space where you can be inspired and offer a hand to others.
THIS IS HOW IT WORKS
**We discover the city’s hidden gems together.** Once you register, you’ll receive the secret location for our gathering.
**You’ll be greeted with a warm welcome hug** **and your first coffee (or tea) is on us**. We keep our groups intimate to ensure real conversation. With the help of a facilitator and our custom cards, we open the door to insights you won't find anywhere else.
**No pressure, just presence.** You can stay quiet and listen, or share your wisdom with the group. You only share what you’re comfortable with. When the gathering ends, the connection continues, and you’ll be invited to our private community to keep the chemistry going.
WHY WE ARE DIFFERENT
We know the algorithm loves loud, party-style events, but we believe in the power of the intimate and the intentional. We are here for the women who want to be seen, heard, and truly connected.

Beginner/Starter Guitar Class
Come and join us for a **Free Guitar Learning Class**! Our class is all about beginning stages: playing chords, tabs, holding guitar properly and getting the fingers ready to play. We will have enough time to cover the basics, discuss what we would like to improve and get playing at least one simple song! I also speak Hungarian, so if there is anyone who doesn’t understand English, I will translate on the go.
Any newcomers are welcome and I will help you to get started and develop together with others.
**What to bring:**
A pen and notebook, so you can take notes as needed.
Guitar (if you don't have one, you can use mine during the class, but definitely you should get a guitar later if you want to learn guitar properly).
This event is totally **free of charge**, but you are welcome to donate, which helps me, the organizer, to cover the bills.
Feel free to **bring your friends**. We have enough space!

From Web Forms to Web Components - Burton Smith
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
**Abstract**
Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively.
This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way.
