๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ด Networking Meets Notworking #1

  • Medellรญn, Antioquia Colombia (map)

The worldโ€™s least boring networking event is landing in Medellin for the first time ever! ๐Ÿš€

๐Ÿ“ฆ WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?

NMN (not to be confused with m&m) is a new, out-of-the-box โ€œnetworkingโ€ experience designed for you to connect with professionals / founders / creatives / nomads in the most seriously playful way possible. ๐ŸŽˆ

Letโ€™s face it. Most networking events suck. You know it. Your mom knows it. The world knows it. The thing is, they donโ€™t have to suck.


๐Ÿšช ENTER YAWN-PROOF NETWORKING ๐Ÿšช

๐ŸŽˆWe 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. Thatโ€™s right, thereโ€™ll be very little small talk here.

๐ŸŽฒ Play stimulates the mind & boosts creativity, improves relationships & your connection to others, and keeps you feeling young & energetic!

๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿ’ป We carefully choose our members to ensure the right people join! This also prevents any llama-bots or โ€˜Nigerian Princesโ€™ with large inheritances from joining.


โšก๏ธ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.

  • Youโ€™re a remote worker/creative/freelancer whoโ€™s trying to change the world.

๐ŸŒˆ WHAT TO EXPECT?

We start with a short & sweet intro followed by a few sweet games to melt the ice. Then weโ€™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! ๐Ÿ‘€

๐Ÿ•น HOW TO JOIN?

Take 90 seconds to fill out our form ๐Ÿ‘ˆ

๐Ÿ’› WHAT THEY SAY

๐Ÿ—ฃ โ€œGreat networking event that felt more like summer camp than a work function. Curated games and breakout sessions ensured that there was never a dull moment. And I even managed to connect itโ€™s someone in my field. I would definitely recommend if youโ€™re in the mood to meet new people without worrying about the boring stuff.โ€ - Laura

๐Ÿ—ฃ โ€œThis is the kind of activity humanity needs every weekend. Thank you for all.โ€ - Sonya (from FTST)
