Do you have entrepreneurial questions? Do you want to gain practical insights?

At The Talks, you set the agenda. Whether you want to spend the evening with our experts for specific advice, or prefer to sit down at a themed table for in-depth conversations: anything is possible.

‍

Create your ideal evening for  The Talks:

‍

1. Throughout the evening (19h-21:30): The Expert Talks (walk-in)

Do you have a specific question? Our partners are there for you at their stands all evening long. You don't need to reserve a specific time slot for this, come by whenever it suits you for advice on:

• Belfius
• Xerius
• Cresco
• Stad Gent
• Vandelanotte
‍

2. At fixed times: The Table Talks

Want to delve deeper into a theme? During the Table Talks, you will talk to an expert and an experienced entrepreneur in a small group. This way, you combine theory with practical experience and go home with concrete, directly applicable do's & don'ts.

Note: Seats are limited for these tables. You can book one or more rounds, or combine them with a visit to The Expert Talks.

‍

During the first edition of The Talks, we will host the following 4 tables:

Round 1 (19:30 — 20:00)

• Table 1: Attracting and retaining customers
  

• Table 2: From AI hype to impact: how AI transforms your product and organisation
  ‍
  

Round 2 (8:15pm — 8:45pm)

• Table 3: Tomorrow's healthcare
  

• Table 4: Running a business with a co-founder
  ‍
  
  

‍

Some inspiration of what the evening might look like for you:

• The “Fast Scanner”: you only visit the Expert Talks stands for short questions with various experts.

• The “Mix & Match”: You sit down at a table in round 1 of the Table Talks and stop by the Expert Talks stands in round 2 or vice versa.

• The “Deep Diver”: You book a seat at a Table Talk in both rounds 1 and 2 and ask your other questions at the Expert Talks.
