New Best Friends – Connect Locally

Monday 4 December 2017 2017

Friends, neighbors, entrepreneurs, explorers, thinkers, improvers, music lovers and adventurers!

Do you know that feeling, that click, that connection that can bring about a new encounter? That undefined feeling that something beautiful is about to happen? That the ideas begin to flow naturally? As in the film Casablanca Rick Blain told Louis Renault the historical words “I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship”, we believe that music has a connecting force to bring people together.

That is why we see a role for Paard in bringing people, companies and good ideas together and thus contribute to the world around us. We know that experiencing a really good liveshow brings people closer together.

Let’s connect!
With this in mind, we ask start-ups and innovators to sign up for selection to participate on December 4th in the first edition of NEW BEST FRIENDS, a new business-matchmaking event in which we have a varied mix of local startups, to bring established companies and government parties into contact with each other. And offcourse accompanied by some rock’n’roll and a beer.

Are you part of a Start Up, a Scale Up or do you have an elaborate innovative idea that contributes to a better world around us? Maybe you can join this first edition of New Best Friends and make those oh so necessary connections.

We only invite parties with whom we feel a click and whom attaches great importance to sustainability, social cohesion and social improvements.

However, we still have a few places left.
