Startup event - why do you go to them?

Question

Hi guys!

I'm curious what your goal is when going to startup events - is it to meet new people? New solutions? Or do you know that one person will be there and you want to talk to them about something?

I'm curious about your experiences!

Startup events are great for expanding your network! I usually go to connect with potential partners or investors. The talks and panels can also provide valuable insights into industry trends. And of course, the after-parties are prime opportunities to have more casual convos and really get to know people in a fun setting. Overall, a mix of strategic networking and staying on top of innovations in the space.

Answer

Meeting new people and exploring ideas are definitely the best parts of startup events for me too. I try to chat with a diverse mix of folks - other founders, investors, potential hires. And if there are any speakers or people I admire, I make it a point to introduce myself and pick their brain a bit. The energy and conversations at these events are always so stimulating and inspiring. Plus the networking opportunities are 🔥
