BUSINESS after-hours by zoku
Come for the talk. Stay for the view. Return for the people.
Once a month we host inspiring talks by leading business professionals in Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Paris and Vienna. From industries covering fashion, tech, sustainability, hospitality and design, our Business After-Hours event series connects interesting people in the same industry while teaching them something new.
HERE'S WHAT'S IN STORE
If you're new to our After-Hours event series, this is what you can expect.
Event program
18.30 – Doors open. Hang out in our cozy Social Spaces and enjoy a free welcome drink from our rooftop bar.
Psst… we have a rooftop restaurant that serves dinner. Dinner isn’t included, but as an attendee you get seating priority in our Living Kitchen before the event starts. If you’re attending alone, we’ll seat you with other attendees so you can already meet each other!
19.00 – Take a seat in our Event Space. Speaker introduction and talk now begins.
19.30 – Talk finishes. Now it’s time for questions, networking, chatting, and some snack grazing. Feel free to explore our outdoor terrace for some fresh air.
21.00 – End of the event. Leave with new ideas and inspiration, or stay with your new connections and have another cocktail until 22.00.
Just a heads-up: This is a sample schedule, and times may vary depending on the location.
