Richard Lucas
Greetings all
This email contains information about free events in Lisbon and Ericeira, and a quick report from Kraków, Poland. As always I am on the lookout for interesting people, projects and events to profile. If you want to be interviewed, contact me here or leave a comment under this blog post. We have 2472 subscribers, and grow by around 100 per month.
I host two gatherings on the last Tuesday of the month and one on the first Friday of the month. See what makes Open Coffee meetups special in this video here, and read why everywhere on earth needs a Newcomer Welcome Club here.
Tuesday 30th April Open Coffee Lisbon at Startup Lisboa 09:30-11:30 with free coffee thanks to the @351 Community Fund and @Capital Factory. Sign up here. I host these events with help from Yuliia, Billy, Giselle, and others. Everyone who attends gets the opportunity to introduce themselves, answering four questions, who they are, what they do, what they want, and - importantly how they can help other people in the room. If you want to help and get involved in making this gathering a regular part of the Lisbon eco-system please let us know here https://forms.gle/hjQUMyFap5K8yo8y9. Please note this event starts on time! This event is always on the last Tuesday of the month.
Tuesday 30th April Lisbon Newcomers Welcome Club at @Titanic @ 18:00-2030 - Sign up here . Richard hosts these events with help from Jacqui, Naren, Roman, Billy. Giselle and others. LNWC meetups are introvert friendly, designed to work for people who don’t know anyone else in the room. They are not only for newcomers but also for longer term residents of Lisbon who want to welcome them. if you want to volunteer and get involved, sign up here. Please note this event starts on time! This event is always on the last Tuesday of the month.
Friday 3rd May Open Coffee Ericeira #10 hosted by Olga Kirillova at Coastal Cowork Collective. R. de São Félix 12e · Ericeira 10:00 - 12:00, Sign up here
Please note this event starts on time! Same format as Open Coffee Lisbon. Everyone gets a minute or two to say who they are, what they want, and how they can help others in the room. This gathering starts on time and is always on the first Friday of the month. Let Olga know if you can help share the organisational lift, or what to contribute to a kids group so that parents with young kids can have them play together somewhere nearby during the event.
News from Krakow
Finally, please take the time to note that Krakow Newcomers Welcome Club is up and running again after a relaunch in Krakow on Thursday 25th April at Yolk Coworking and Cafe, under the leadership of Caroline Ostara who did a fantastic job hosting her first meeting - see photos below. Many thanks to Max, David, Giselle and the team at Yolk as well. The next event in Krakow is 14th May - sign up here
If you are thinking, “but how is the relevant to me here in Lisbon ?” remember that everywhere in the world needs one of these clubs. If you are a) from somewhere or b) heading somewhere and want to get something like this going, get in touch, I will help you,
