The world’s least boring networking event is back in Medellin for round two!🚀
📦 WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?
NMN (not to be confused with m&m) is a new, out-of-the-box “networking” experience designed for you to connect with professionals / founders / creatives / nomads in the most seriously playful way possible. 🎈
Let’s face it. Most networking events suck. You know it. Your mom knows it. The world knows it. The thing is, they don’t have to suck.
🚪 ENTER YAWN-PROOF NETWORKING 🚪
🎈We are serious about play. We use awesome games, juicy conversation prompts, and challenges that cut straight through the ice and get to the good stuff. That’s right, there’ll be very little small talk here.
🎲 Play stimulates the mind & boosts creativity, improves relationships & your connection to others, and keeps you feeling young & energetic!
🧑💻 We carefully choose our members to ensure the right people join! This also prevents any llama-bots or ‘Nigerian Princes’ with large inheritances from joining.
⚡️WHY JOIN?
Meet potential friends, sidekicks, or even a co-founder!
Get inspired & out of your head.
You haven't socialized in a while and it's about time.
You’re a remote worker/creative/freelancer who’s trying to change the world.
🌈 WHAT TO EXPECT?
We start with a short & sweet intro followed by a few sweet games to melt the ice. Then we’ll have a series of 7 rounds/games. Some will be 1-1 and others will be in groups. Each with a different length, a new person (or group), and a different topic! 👀
