The day after Valentine’s Day, we organized our Speed Date event at the beautiful romantic location of Hof Ten Bosse. Look back with us on this unforgettable event, where we brought technology and romance together for an atmospheric afternoon and evening.<\/em><\/p>\n

Speed Date Sessions<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The setting at Hof Ten Bosse fitted perfectly within the Valentine theme: romantic red roses, atmospheric lights, Tinder date cards and delectable snacks created an ambiance full of love and excitement.<\/p>\n

During the speed dates, many partners found their perfect match for their technology challenges. We brought together vendors, Kappa Data experts and technologies for the ideal technology matches. After every 15 minutes, the bell sounded and the next speed date began.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_gallery interval=”3″ images=”20043,20097,20049,20073,20061,20088,20064,20067,20070,20046,20076,20079,20052,20082,20085,20091,20094″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

After the speed dates, there was time for cozy networking while we enjoyed delectable snacks and drinks with sugar hearts to enhance the atmosphere. The conversations could be continued at length.<\/p>\n

To keep the memory of this special evening alive, all attendees received a small baking gift: ‘Whisking love, baking connections’.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_gallery interval=”3″ images=”20100,20112,20103,20106,20118,20121,20109,20115″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
