Networking at its best during the Dutch Innovation Seminar

Networking at its best during the Dutch Innovation Seminar

Paul Bulenzi (Local Representative for Jinja-Central in Uganda)and Siegfried Woldhek (founder of NABUUR.com) demonstrated together for an audience in the Netherlands of 150 innovation managers how NABUUR works.

Through Skype, Paul Bulenzi raised a question about the shipment of mosquito nets from the US to Uganda. The audience came up with a number of possible solutions by sharing their ideas live and real time.

One of the participants, Fons Sweegers, got in touch with a friend in the Netherlands who has a girlfriend in Uganda. She works for a US company that can probably help with the shipment. Now that's networking!

The Dutch Innovation Seminar is an initiative of 'De Baak'. De Baak is the place for leaders, business people and professionals to come in search of inspiration, motivation, knowledge and insight.

More details and pictures to come soon!
