Meet&Deal vol3 is behind us and it’s crazy what all happened there and how the event looked. You’ll find out in the vlog that will be released soon, of course also in this article, but also in other outputs that are appearing and will appear on social networks. You simply have to experience the atmosphere that prevailed at the event. More than 350 people gathered at the Kaiserštejnský Palace and networked, closed deals and tried to move forward together. What did it all look like?
Moderation marathon
At 3:00 pm, the gates of the Kaiserštejnský Palace opened. We couldn’t have chosen a better place for vol3. It was a great contrast to the Summer Edition, which took place in summer vibes in Město~Moře. The palace demanded a bit of gala. But it was Halloween, which was reflected in the outfits of many people. And I appreciate that.
I started the event with an opening speech and then a never-ending moderation marathon. I’m already looking for a moderator for the next Meet&Deal events. Do you know anyone? Let me know. In the panel on the topic of People management: How to keep key people in the company? together with Tatiana Ondrejková, co-founder & CEO Pelikan Travel, Dominik Píchal, founder & CEO GRIZLY and Ondřej Holzman, editor-in-chief of CzechCrunch, we discussed employee benefits, corporate culture and employee loyalty. This was followed by the first live Reels Talks by André with influencer Venis Dao and then with Jakub Časlava aka Kubova English, who also rapped, among other things.
The most nutritious networking and plenty of accompanying activities
In the rest of the Kaiserštejnský Palace, people could enjoy catering from Město~Moře, exclusive mixed drinks at two bars from Alkohol.cz (which were all drunk and 100 more), prosecco in the Ecomail Prosecco lounge, Red-Bully or wine from Vinařství u svatého Martina and of course the biggest portion of the most nutritious networking.
As a highlight, visitors networked at 1-on-1 rock-paper-scissors, where Kazimír Krysta from Webscale defended first place, took photos and filmed in three photocorners from Gala360 or collected tips on hair and body care directly from Tomáš Arsov and his team. There was also a short movie with popcorn by Foxdeli.
Over 100k for a good cause
At 8:30 pm, we announced the main raffle prizes, to which our partners Hofo production, Trenýrkárna, Tomas Arsov, Husky, CzechCruch and many others contributed. Together we contributed to a good cause. Dominika, who has been recovering from a traffic accident for 7 years, has a chance for a better life thanks to everyone who contributed. In cooperation with the Kubova English Foundation, together with Foxdeli, we raised over 100,000 crowns. Thank you for that.
After the raffle, we continued networking accompanied by a DJ, so it gradually turned into a party. The drinks were disappearing, the catering too, but it was far from the end.
Home? No. To the Moon. And even further
At 11:00 pm, we had to leave the Kaiserštejnský Palace, we jumped into taxis and headed straight to the Moon Club, where we were greeted with a welcome drink, but also a great show. We had the upper floor space for ourselves, so we had a great view of the show. Many participants, including me, lasted in the Moon until closing time and continued even further. We thus ended the evening after 4 am. So it was really nutritious.
Meet&Deal vol3 from the participants’ perspective
First reactions didn’t take long: “I really liked it. Compared to the first one, I see a big improvement in everything. I really liked the way you hosted it. You spoke really well, I think you’re really working on yourself, you’ve progressed. I appreciate it and I really enjoyed it. Great interesting guests, excellent catering. I liked the details: logos on the popcorn, various cards everywhere, nice additional program. You’ve got it great. I like what you and the team are putting into it,” says Denisa Gajdíková from Mylerie in her feedback.
“The venue spaces were really beautiful. The selection of drinks was also great. The talks with people from the industry were very inspiring for me. But the most amazing thing was meeting Jirka from Dream creators, who composes music for teasers and films of world quality,” confided Kája Rubínová, Social Media Team Leader at Fragile.
And how were the deals at Meet&Deal vol3? I’m already getting the first information, but I’ll wait a bit. Definitely look forward to a separate article on the deals from the Kaiserštejnský Palace.
I’m already looking forward to next year
I would like to thank here the other partners who were not mentioned in the article, namely Mailkit, Macek.Legal, Partico.cz, Fajn Rádio or E-COMMERCE AKCE.
There’s plenty of time until the end of the year. Even though the event season is slowly but surely coming to an end. Christmas parties will be more in vogue now. Maybe I’ll show up somewhere, but now my plans are already directed to 2025.
What’s going to happen? Some of you already know, some of you have even bought a year-round ticket, but that’s not all. On the meetdeal.cz website, you can now buy a ticket for vol4 in Bratislava, vol5 in Prague and the Brno Edition. The list of events in 2025 doesn’t end there, but I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t reveal everything to you right away.
We will gradually unveil partners and more and more activities that the team and I have prepared. See you in Bratislava? Slovakia, get ready for us.
