Invitation: Virtual Get-Together for ABC Members

Dear Members,

In phone calls over the past week with some of you, we proposed to set up a frequent “virtual get-together” for ABC members:  A small group of members getting together on a video conferencing platform with the sole purpose of exchanging experiences, information, solutions and concerns regarding the current situation – basically an “After Work” chat but without a complimentary drink “¦ 🙂

The feedback from most of you on this idea was very positive – so let´s give it a try!  We have been setting up these virtual get-togethers on a daily basis starting Sunday, April 05 and – for a start – will continue until Thursday, April 09.

In order to make them meaningful and fruitful, the number of participants will be limited to 8 persons per session (including the host). Please join by following the link to reserve your slot:

https://www.supersaas.co.uk/schedule/AustrianBusinessCouncil/Virtual_Get-togethers

Every confirmed participant will receive a link by email to enter the video conference session.

We are flexible in our approach: even if a slot is already fully booked, you can enroll in a waiting list – if there are enough people on the waiting list we might add another virtual get-together on that day. Likewise, if there is no interest or not enough interest for a slot, we will cancel that session. In the meantime we will continue to inform you about interesting webinars in our newsletters.

We look forward to meeting you in one of the virtual get-together sessions!

Stay safe!

POSTPONED – ABC Member Speed Networking (09 March) & Event with Dubai Future Foundation (16 March)

We regret to inform you that we will have to postpone the ABC Member Speed Networking Event scheduled for Monday, March 9.  Although getting to know other members in a structured manner was mentioned often when we requested feedback from you on what we could do to improve our services, the response was rather reluctant. It might very well be that the current coronavirus situation plays a significant role. Since safety is our priority and this Speed-Networking event only makes sense with a certain number of participants, we decided to postpone it until further notice. In light of the current situation we will also postpone the event with the Dubai Future Foundation scheduled for Monday, March 16 to a later date. We would like to thank our partners for both events, Media One Hotel Dubai and Dubai Future Foundation, for their understanding and support! We are sorry that we have to take these steps, but we are also sure that we have your full understanding! Again, these events are not cancelled but postponed and it is our intention to fix new dates for both events as soon as possible. We will update you as soon as possible. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us!
