Take a step back and look at the bigger social landscape ๐. There's massive demand for events right now ๐. Ever notice how women often ask for your Instagram on dating apps? ๐ฑ They're partly checking for social proof โ and the vetting is even higher when itโs a 1:1 date.
Many women simply prefer meeting in a lower-pressure setting, like an event, rather than jumping straight into a first date. It feels safer and more natural ๐.
At an event with other people around:
* Vetting feels easier and safer for women ๐ก๏ธ
* You can meet multiple people at once ๐ฅ
* You're not paying for individual dates ๐ฐ
* The focus is on you as the host letting your social skills and charisma shine to attract women
**The new strategy ๐**
Make your Instagram searchable and clear. For example:
**๐ โIโm an accountant, new in Dubai from Mumbai, open to meeting new people.โ**
Next, create an event that draws attention to your profile ๐ฏ. This gives women a chance to view and follow your instagram, and feel comfortable showing up.
From there:
* Build inbound messages in your inbox ๐ฉ
* Send a bulk DM invite to your event on a night you're free ๐
* Host a fun social experience ๐
Youโll grow your followers ๐, build social proof & status โญ, and stand out in a crowded market by doing something different.
Bonus: you can also use the event to promote your business ๐ผโจ

Tech Entrepreneurs Casual Hangout
Hi tech entrepreneurs!
Let's meet up over morning coffee at Cafiene Club, Cluster R, Lake level, JLT.
There's plenty of parking nearby.
You are welcome whether you are an established entrepreneur, a beginner or an entrepreneur-in-waiting. Join in, bring your learnings and see what you can learn from others.
The mission of these events is to help create a community of entrepreneurs. To share information, advice, fresh ideas, tips and tricks, solutions and to build connections with like-minded entrepreneurs.
This is a casual, pitch-free hangout. Please, no sales pitches.
The event starts from 9.30 and goes on till 12. You are welcome to join at your comfortable time.
+++
As an entrepreneur one of the biggest challenges we have is to build connections with others in the game. To freely share the problems and ideas and get the perspective of our peers. To connect and build long-term friendships and partnerships with people who truly get what we are doing and why we are doing it.
This is the group that hopes to give you that.
COMMUNITY: Please join this WhatsApp Community and introduce yourself if you have never attended our event before.

Friend Match Before Events
We get it โ people are way more likely to show up to an event if they already know someone ๐โจ
Get invites after registering at [https://eseek.app](https://eseek.app)
Thatโs where matching comes in ๐ค
Itโs an easy icebreaker that lets you connect and DM others before the event even starts ๐ฌ
For women - it's not a dating thing, it can be a real struggle to get women to go to events. One thing we know women are more likely to go if they know other women going, so match with and DM another woman prior to the event.
You can DM matched profiles before the event, view instagram etc.
We also have hosts on the platform ๐ and weโll send you ideas for group events where you can match with people ahead of time ๐๏ธโจ
To unlock the event match card list, thereโs a small fee of $10 ๐ณ

**Introduction:**
HTML5 is the foundational technology for modern web development, serving as the standard markup language for structuring and presenting content on the World Wide Web. Developed through a collaboration between the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and the Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group (WHATWG), HTML5 provides a robust system of elements (tags) that tell a browser how to display text, images, and multimedia in a clear and meaningful way. It works in concert with Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) for presentation and JavaScript for interactivity, forming the core technology stack for virtually all websites and many web applications today.
One of the significant advancements of HTML5 is the introduction of powerful new features and elements designed to improve functionality and simplify development. Key additions include native multimedia support via the \ and \ tags, allowing developers to embed media without third-party plugins. It also offers new form controls for better user input, such as date and email types, and introduces web storage capabilities to store data offline for enhanced performance. These features streamline the process of building rich, interactive web experiences.
A significant focus of HTML5 is enhanced semantics and better structural organization of content. New semantic elements like , , , , and \ provide meaningful structure to documents, which aids in search engine optimization (SEO) and improves accessibility for assistive technologies. These elements define different parts of a webpage (e.g., a header for the top, a nav for navigation links, a footer for the bottom), making the code more readable and understandable for both developers and machines. This emphasis on clear structure helps in creating more logical and maintainable websites.
Developing websites in today's competitive environment requires taking advantage of every technique you can to get the maximum exposure possible. Our HTML5 class will not only show you what's new in the HTML specification, but also the best way to develop optimized web pages that get the attention your client and/or company requires.
**The breakdown of the four-class series is as follows:**
**Class 1: Introduction to Web Structure and Basic HTML5**

* **Activity**: Students create a basic personal webpage containing text, a list of hobbies, and a link to an external website.
**Class 2: Semantic HTML5 and Multimedia Integration**
Class 2 focuses on modern HTML5 elements that provide meaning (semantics) to content, improving accessibility and search engine optimization. It also covers adding images and multimedia.

**Class 3: Forms and User Input**
This session is dedicated to building interactive HTML5 forms, which are essential for capturing user data and input.
* **Topics**:
* **Form Basics**: Using the form element, action and method attributes.
* **Input Types**: Exploring various input types (e.g., text, password, checkbox, radio, date, submit).
* **Form Elements**: Utilizing label, textarea, select, option, and button.
