☞ Workshop: "Stop Networking. Start Connecting" by Eduardo dos Santos Silva
Most people approach networking like a performance.
You say the right things, pitch yourself, and hope to make an impression.
But real opportunities don’t come from performance.
They come from connection.
In this interactive workshop, we’ll challenge the traditional idea of networking and replace it with a more human—and far more effective—approach.
You’ll learn how to:
Shift from impressing others to genuinely understanding them
Move from talking to actually listening
Stop collecting contacts and start creating meaningful relationships
We’ll reframe the way you show up:
Networking = performance
Connection = relationship
Interactive exercise:
You’ll rewrite your personal introduction—from a CV-style pitch to a human story that people actually remember and relate to.
Expect practical insights, honest conversations, and a new way of thinking about how you build relationships—whether you're a founder, job seeker, or just tired of “networking.”

Many internationals moved to Basel for work or study, whether from Berlin, London, Paris, or elsewhere. You’re ambitious, curious, and seeking intellectual stimulation, variety, and diversity of ideas.
Yet networking events can sometimes feel too transactional or “work mode only.” We believe networking can (and should) be energizing, fun, and meaningful. Everybody Networks Here is a professional network, but also a community that welcomes all parts of you: your creativity, ideas, interests, quirks, and unique perspectives.
Our evening is designed to help you elevate your network by taking ownership of your energy and building meaningful connections, starting with the workshop and flowing into engaging networking activities.
Everybody Networks Here hosts events across Europe, including Copenhagen, Amsterdam, Stockholm, Paris, and London, bringing together diverse professionals to expand networks, share knowledge, and create opportunities wherever they are.
We can’t wait to meet you at our very first event in Basel!
All the best,
Everybody Networks Here
