We had a fabulous discussion with our members new and senior at the Library in January. We’d like to broaden the discussion and present some of our new and on going collaborations with our members.

Please join the EuropeanPWN-Amsterdam board at the Renaissance Hotel for discussions about opportunities here and abroad in collaboration with some of our other European Professional Womens Neworks.

Guests are of course always welcome to the borrel, conversation will be tailored to our “club” business. There will be no guest speaker at this event. Rieke Smakman will be facilitating our discussion.

My May favorite is the Odessa.
They are often reserved for large groups though so I’ll
get back to you on the details as we get closer to the event.

Anita and I will meet in the bar around 19:00 and when sufficient folks arrive we will move upstairs to the restaurant. Just ring if you think you’ve missed us.

They’ve stopped the Jazz on Thursday night in the Pijp – so that venue is “out” until we decide to go on a Sunday…

In the meantime we have some folks that have agreed to help us on visuals and marketing brainstorming – so in consultation with other board members – we’ve decided that WERCK is the best place. There is “s’feer” for a proper borrel & there is room for “discussion”.

I’ll be there around six in the bar and then we’ll have a table in the restaurant (also for folks that haven’t eaten) at 19:45. Please join us as your schedule permits.

See you soon & thanks for registering.
I’ll keep scouting for live music venues this spring.
Suggestions welcome.

Cheers,
Anna

Erika & Karin would like to welcome you to the Hague Borrel.

The Pasta Company is the last restaurant in the row, after Het Brouwcafe, De Zoute Zoen, De Dagvisser and Lemongrass. For more details about the venue, go to www.pastacompany.nl. There is plenty of free parking and if you are travelling by public transport, the bus stop is called Statenlaan Noord and the closest tram from Den Haag Centraal Station is #17 (richting Statenkwartier) and the stop is called Van Boetzelaerlaan.

We are looking forward to seeing you all and to enjoying yet another exciting networking evening!

Happy New Year
This is your chance to come borrel with the Amsterdam board.
Ideas, brainstorm, feedback, questions are welcome.

We’ll all be on hand to talk with you about the organization, logistics, planning, future board positions, what’s happening with the federation, and how you can help to grow and to sustain the organization with your participation. “Club business” and updates.

We will meet in the New Library – next to Amsterdam Centraal Station
(same as last year). Join us on the top floor at the bar for tapas and beverages in the La Place Restaurant.

We have also reserved a meeting room – on the 6th floor.

We really enjoyed the productive discussions last year in this format.
Please join us again!

New Year, New Chances.

Proost!
