Natalia Kardash and Panis Pieri invite their personal networks to meet each other in 2023. The first BMT event is planned for mid-February in Limassol, followed by Nicosia in March, Paphos in April and Larnaca in May 2023.
MAXIMUM 100 PEOPLE
Each event will be attended by 30-50 business leaders from tech industry invited by Panis and 30-50 leaders of non-tech companies invited by Natalia.
PROGRAM AT A GLANCE
• 16.00-16.30 – one-to-one meetings and networking
• 16.30-17.00 – first «roundtable» discussions (maximum 10 delegates per group)
• 17.00 – 17.30: one-to-one meetings and networking
• 17.30 – 18.00: second «roundtable» discussions
• 18.00 – 20.00: cocktail reception and networking
FOUR HOURS TOGETHER
The event is to begin at 16.00. In the first half hour participants may conduct prearranged one-to-one meetings or simply walk around meeting other participants. There will be a moderated discussion in each group that will start by a two-minutes introduction from each participant, followed by a «round-table» discussion on a specific theme which is of interest to this group. The moderator’s role is to ensure everyone has had the opportunity to introduce themselves and their business, contribute to the discussions and keep to the 30-minute timeline per meeting.
Delegates will have the opportunity to network between the “roundtable” meetings scheduled for that afternoon and attend the pre-registered one-to-one meetings.
From 17.30 to 18.00 attendees will participate in a discussion with a different group — around 10-15 minutes for group participants’ introductions, this time to a different audience, and 15-20 minutes for an exchange of ideas, thoughts and information.
At 18:00, participants will be invited to attend a reception to enjoy a glass of wine, whilst having the opportunity to keep networking.
HOW DOES THE NETWORKING WORK?
At this networking event people can meet and create many new contacts. Group meetings take 30 minutes, which allows enough time to establish connections. Then the bell rings to finish group meetings and after some time the next round of meetings starts. When participating in two groups, each person hears introductions of 14-16 people and can discuss with them relevant subjects during the group talk and later in the event.
Upon the registration, few weeks before meetings, participants provide their photo and business profile. A few days before the event, each participant will receive a meeting schedule, showing names, time and location of the personal meetings, and also enough information on anyone they can meet in groups or during the cocktail time during this event.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF PARTICIPATING IN THIS NETWORKING EVENT?
1. Meet many new contacts of C-level at once.
2. Have enough time to speak to most of them.
3. Introduce your business, your ideas and plans to like-minded people.
All participants can present their expertise, company profile and future business plans prior to the event, online. This way, registered delegates can start networking prior to the BMT event and be more targeted with their networking at the event.
PARTICIPANTS
Only business owners and C-level executives can register for this event. The organisers will keep a 50/50 balance: half of participants work in IT and technology sector and the other half not. Organisers know all the participants in person and can help in networking.
