A business-building morning for entrepreneurs ready to grow.
If you’re an English-speaking business owner or freelancer on the Côte d’Azur, this is your chance to step away from the day-to-day and focus on connection, strategy, and practical learning to move your business forward.
Join us for a morning of insights, conversations, and genuine community — all over good coffee in the heart of Sophia Antipolis.
Your details will appear on the shared attendee list, so remember to add your business name and link when registering.
What to Expect
🔹 Arrival & Welcome
When you arrive, there’s time to mingle and settle in over coffee. Zoe Filippi, business and marketing strategist and founder of Riviera Entrepreneurs, will be there to welcome you, introduce you to others, and make sure you feel at home.
The morning opens with a short welcome from Zoe before we kick off with our guest speaker session.
🔹 Guest Speaker Session
Each month, a local expert shares real-world lessons from their business journey.
This November, we’re joined by Anne-Fabienne Raven, a therapeutic coach and wellbeing professional who helps entrepreneurs align with themselves to thrive in both business and life.
Her short talk explores three essential foundations:
• Confidence & Self-Worth – Valuing your expertise and asking for your worth with ease.
• Alignment – Making business decisions that feel right for you and your values.
• Boundaries & Enoughness – Creating the structure and clarity that keep your energy focused.
🔹 Group Discussions & Rotations
Structured, purposeful networking that goes beyond small talk. Each round is designed to help you exchange insights, referrals, and opportunities with fellow entrepreneurs.
🔹 Business Conversations
This is a space for entrepreneurs who are serious about growth — whether that means learning smarter strategies, making valuable connections, or finding new clients.
