We held a fun and educational virtual gathering of global business people networking while enjoying lunch and dinner - focus on the Balkan countries! Included were Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovenia and Turkey. Particular focus was on Romania and Bulgaria.
Thank you Eliz Nestorov and the US-Bulgarian Chamber in America for the collaboration! Watch the event HERE.
We hold monthly virtual dining events, and this was our first lunch/dinner event between the Americas and Europe! It definitely looks like we'll be doing that again!! Thanks everyone for participating - outstanding! Again, thanks to US-Bulgaria Chamber in America!
We had an amazing group of talented food and wine experts including artist Martina Bikovska of Adella Cake in Sofia. Amazing - pictured above and below. Thank you Martina!
We were also treated to an amazing discussion on Romanian wine by world-renowned expert Marinela Ardelean, helping to add the perfect complement to a regional meal. Thank you Marinela!
In virtual dining, members and non-members are invited from around the region and world. We enjoy a meal with either home-cooking or take-out handled locally, with a theme on a region that we discuss... culture, traditions and business.
Often business is done over a dining table, and so we extend the idea virtually across borders to build knowledge, relationships and trust. Thank you Maria Putnam for leading this session and for your ongoing leadership. Thank you all for attending. Let's eat, drink and do business!
