In the start-up word networking is a key component, not just to exchange with other founders, but also to make appropriate contacts that can support one's goals. In addition, the conversionrate of convincing an investor is much higher during a casual networking conversation than a standard text message. So take the chance and visit start-up events. We from inQventures believe in the potential of those events and are looking forward to a first meet-up with you.
