How to connect global brands and agencies through networking

Celine Jonker – van der Peet - Marketing Manager at Klarna

Sometimes you have to do something you normally don't. I never thought an 'only women' event would be for me. Last night I went to Hotel Mercier and met lots of like-minded, beautiful and intelligent women. And we all share one passion: marketing. A networking event has never been so relaxed before.

The Women in Marketing event arranged by The Introduction last week was a fantastic way to meet experienced, passionate and smart women from the industry. So many new amazing connections were made by all! The format worked brilliantly, allowing just the right mix of conversation, discussion and inspiration. The team were consummate professionals who kept the whole event running smoothly and I would highly recommend their events in future.

The Introduction successfully leveraged their brilliant network of brands and marketers to create a totally unique event - one that felt truly personal and made making connections feel meaningful. It’s already helped Given grow our pipeline for brand purpose projects as we continue to grow our presence in Amsterdam. A worthwhile trip from London!
