The Keystones
The three keystones on which activities are founded: difference through diversity, sharing of knowledge, and quality time
People with true diverse backgrounds
NOT ANOTHER is different, and 'not another business club'. It is exactly the heterogeneous nature of our network and the changing composition at each event that makes it so interesting. Unexpected meetings with people with totally different backgrounds ensure the most refreshing ideas. All different kinds of entrepreneurs and non-entrepreneurs with a healthy curiosity about the experiences of others and what motivates them.
NOT ANOTHER itself establishes unexpected links by adding a great diversity of content to the mix: from art, corporate finance and good causes, through vinology, technology start-ups and sales to science and more. Furthermore, NOT ANOTHER is indeed a real-life platform for the broadening and deepening of your own network.
NOT ANOTHER makes a good fit with the world of the 'Next Generation Professionals'. Autonomous and self-confident individuals, driven by ambition and their own strengths, not by security. These professionals take the responsibility themselves for their future and consciously look - also beyond well-trodden paths - for learning experiences that strengthen their ability to achieve their goals.
Sharing knowledge - Storytelling
Entrepreneurial spirits are less inclined to acquire knowledge in the conventional 'classroom' manner. They find that there are much more pleasant, more informal and quicker ways. STORYTELLING: listening to lessons learned on a first-hand basis, directly from successful entrepreneurs and people who are pursuing their dreams is enormously valuable and effective. So NOT ANOTHER looks for inspiring stories and facilitates the informal sharing of knowledge and experience with a diverse group of authentic people. And at the same time these stories create a common ground for the evening, because of which you will easily connect with the other guest present!
Quality time - then and when truly desired
Our aim is that the time spent on NOT ANOTHER events is experienced as 'quality time'. It is therefore our challenge to ensure we create just the right conditions.
It is also the atmosphere and facilities of the location and venue and location that ensure that you are delighted you took part. It is also our aim that you will derive energy and inspiration from them. We choose our locations and venues carefully. You'll find more information about a number of the NOT ANOTHER venues here.
