Whether you are an entrepreneur, just starting your career, or happily employed but looking for new connections, you are warmly invited to join our networking events.
The locally organized Bites & Business evenings are accessible, informal, business-oriented, and inspiring. There is no speaker or pre-set theme, as entrepreneurial women always have plenty to share. Participants can meet new people, gain inspiration, and actively help each other using the envelope method™, all while enjoying a delightful dinner or lunch in their own city. Each local B&B chapter has one or two coordinators who organize these networking evenings or lunches.
Your hosts Marbella-Estepona is Esther Hofstede (NL), living in Spain and in the Netherlands.
