#SGParty in July + Art Assets

July is traditionally the month where we bring this amazing community together in huge networking events (as many are away on holiday in the North, so bring those not travelling together).

They can be free (or paid) and with (or without) a speaker - but one thing is for sure - they come with awesome custom art assets created by HQ:

Please make sure you publish your July events, it’s an excellent opportunity to grow your lists + attract new people and have some serious fun with your local startup community!

p.s. - Yes, you may use these graphics in other months, should you have other parties.

#SGBlockchain

Remember that August is "All Things Blockchain" month at SG! So please ensure to get a crypto/blockchain speaker lined up for that month!

PLEASE NOTE: If you are thinking of advertising your event, please DO NOT use the words Crypto or ICO - Google, Microsoft and Facebook block those words!! (so if you can use “blockchain” instead of “Crypto” speaker in your event listings… please do so!)

Art Assets - Yip, you guessed it…. some more amazing designs from the incredible mind of Eugenia!

#SGRegional-Conferences

We couldn't be more excited, every year more rockstars in the community show interest in hosting their own Regional Conference. Sharn hosted a Regional Conference in Toronto last April & Pablo in Feb, which were a great successes! Now three more rockstars are in full swing planning their conference.

• Àlex’s will host his Conference in Barcelona on 13-14 November
• Hanane will host her Conference in Casablanca on 28-29 November
• Chris is planning to have his Conference in Melbourne on 6-7 December
• Pablo is planning to have his Conference in Mexico next year (his 3rd event!)

We highly recommend you join all of them ;) or pick the one which is the closest to you. Make sure to show some love and support via social media - even if you can’t attend!

If you wish to host one, please apply here (need to be hosting great events for over a year to qualify): https://help.startupgrind.com/category/219-regional-conferences

Community Manager, Bevy
One of Bevy’s new clients is looking for a community manager. Someone that understands how important it is to foster a community and can take their community to the next level. The team is fully remote, so is an excellent opportunity to work for a funded startup (HQ in San Francisco).

We're looking for an Airline Alliance partner
One of the suggestions at the Startup Grind Nations Symposium in London was to see if we could find an airline partner, specifically an Airline Alliance partner, to help with flight costs for Startup Grind Directors. We would like to broker a deal for the Global Conference where we can hopefully negotiate either complimentary ticket vouchers and/or discounted flights.
