Own Your Story, Own the Room.
Storytelling. Career Growth. Networking.
Your job title tells people what you do.
Your résumé tells people where you have been.
But neither tells us what shaped you.
The risk you took.
The failure that changed your direction.
The conversation you still carry.
The moment you chose to begin again.
Those are the stories that reveal who we are—and the stories people remember.
Own Your Story, Own the Room is a dynamic storytelling night for professionals and leaders who want to move beyond polished superficial introductions, see their own experiences in a new light, and connect beyond job titles.
The evening begins with laughter and getting to know each other. Then come the career stories—the real moments behind leadership, ambition, setbacks, choices, and change.
In the Story Lab, you will have a fun interactive session to uncover moments that shaped you and turn it into a story people can hear, remember, and feel. Later, the stage transforms into an open mic, for anyone who wants to share their story.
Come for the stories, laughter, music, drinks, and bites.
Stay for the conversations that happen when people meet as humans—not just résumés, roles, and LinkedIn profiles.
Leave with stories that stay with you, a story of your own to tell, and connections that go beyond “So, what do you do?”
Your host & facilitator Sangbreeta Moitra is a 2× TEDx speaker, Dutch & European public-speaking champion, and behaviour-change expert for Fortune 500 teams. She helps leaders turn lived experience into clear, compelling stories—and build the confidence to share them.
