Networking and Relationship Strategy: Connecting with the right people
Join us for an insightful event on "Networking and Relationship Building: Connecting with the Right People"!
In this workshop, we’ll dive into the importance of forming genuine connections and how these relationships are the foundation for personal and professional success. Led by Lenz, a community builder, serial entrepreneur, and mentor, we’ll learn key strategies for improving communication and building meaningful networks. With Lenz’s experience in founding startups, organizing global meetups, and facilitating countless Startup Weekends, he brings a wealth of knowledge on how to connect with the right people and create lasting relationships.
Participants will gain valuable insights into:
✅ How to approach networking as a conversation between people, not just a business transaction.
✅ The importance of communication in building trust and credibility with potential partners or investors.
✅ Mental hacks to improve relationship-building skills, central to success in every aspect of life.
This event will be held at Fábrica do Empreendedor de Lagos, a vibrant space designed to foster creativity and collaboration.
Whether you’re an entrepreneur, investor, or simply looking to improve your networking abilities, this workshop will equip you with the tools and strategies to build meaningful, effective relationships in any setting.
This workshop is part of a series of free educational events promoted by the 351 Portuguese Startup Association in collaboration with the Techstars Startup Weekends team in Portugal. The next edition of Techstar Startup Weekend will be in Albufeira - join us there too!
