October is celebrated as Freelancers' Month around the world, which is why on 21 October Robert Vlach will come to the Telegraph again with his Freelance project as part of the Freelance On the Road tour. Attendees can enjoy informal networking with other independent professionals, a tour of the building, a discussion about entrepreneurship and other topics with a special guest, and a chance to try working in a coworking space or café. His guest will be the entrepreneur Zuzana Bílková.
Zuzana Bílková is the owner of Beskydy, a traditional Beskyd manufactory of woollen blankets and other bedding of the highest quality, which are handmade from sheep's wool purchased from local farmers. She is one of the most prominent Czech entrepreneurs and has won numerous awards for her work. For more information visit www.Besky.cz
On October 31, we are loosely following this meeting with a series of lectures with debates TELEGrowth. During these we will have the opportunity to meet successful, independent professionals who will present their journey, how they grew on their own feet and will be available to answer any curious questions, maybe help with some advice and who knows, maybe together we can find a way to start our own successful journey. Be there with us!
In the fall run, we'll be focusing on songwriters, writers, screenwriters, publicists... - simply, masters of the word. Interested in topics like content marketing, copywriting and the use of AI in these fields? Or the creation of newsletters, columns, creative websites, or children's books? We'll be covering all this and more in November. Our guests will include the authors of How to Network, Hacked Czech, Write Like a Copywriter, the comic strip Hana and Hana, and several books with Dubanek. The personalities behind such projects as Czech 2.0, 3ká, Čermák Staněk Comedy, H. U. S. and COM.ensky, or the School of Masters of Text.
On October 31, the legend of Czech copywriting, copywriting teacher, creator and blogger Otto Bohuš will kick off TELEGrowth with his lecture. Otto is the author of Write Like a Copywriter, a finalist for Entrepreneur of the Year, founder of AI LAB, author of Ottoletter and lecturer of courses on advertising writing. In the future, in his own words, he plans to "carbonise the coke and accelerate the moderates."
