Laos Business Meetings
Although there are workshops here and there and some business associations exist, Vientiane lacks of regularly business oriented networking events. In a country that still lacks of enough SMEs it is important to connect people and share knowledge and ideas.
The basic idea of a monthly Vientiane Business meeting is to bring foreign investors and business men together with local entrepreneurs and business owners. Anyone can participate, entrance is free.
The first meeting will take place at Kop Chai Deu, Top floor, on February 1st. It starts at 6.30 pm. The first hour is intended to be the socializing part.
From 7.30 pm to 9 pm we will have presentations. We have two topics so far: “Social Marketing with Facebook and Co.” and “Challenges for foreigners to manage a Lao company”. More topics are much appreciated. The only limit is 10 minutes for each presentation. The presentation doesn’t has to be with power point slides, any free talk is fine.
The last hour from 9 pm to 10 pm is reserved for networking and further discussions about the recent presentations.
If you are interested in having a presentation or talk about a topic let us know: thomas.wanhoff@gmail.com (02077591338) or on Facebook or the website http://laosbusinessmeetings.tumblr.com
We are looking for sponsors for drinks and finger food. Kop Chai Deu is sponsering us with the room, and www.expat-advisory.com is our first media partner.
Please let us know if you want to join - by reply or comment on the blog or Facebook. Please also forward this message to people you think may be interested.
