Bites & Business around the world


From summer 2026, we are building on a global movement of female professionals that come together during a networking dinner.

Our goals:
1. Get to know each other
2. Inspire each other
3. Help each other with our famous "envelop method". 

No speaker, no theme, as we have enough to share.
Always during a dinner, sometimes a lunch. 

The first chapter that will be launched is

Bites & Business Marbella-Estepona (Spain)


Esther Hofstede (NL) will manage this chapter. 

About Esther:

"Caminante, no hay camino, se hace camino al andar"

Esther Hofstede is a Dutch entrepreneur with a passion for connecting people, creating social impact, and building meaningful communities. She believes that the best opportunities don't begin with a business card or a sales pitch, but with genuine curiosity and a sincere interest in other people. With an international mindset and a background at the intersection of business, community building, and employee volunteering, Esther enjoys bringing women together to inspire, support, and empower one another. Based in Benahavis and Amersfoort, she is excited to grow a welcoming Bites & Business chapter where authentic connections and mutual success come first. In her free time, Esther finds energy in an active outdoor and mindful lifestyle. She enjoys tennis, hiking and yoga and is an animal lover and vegan. She loves discovering different cultures, meeting new people, and enjoying the Mediterranean lifestyle.
