XING hosted the first Official Ambassador event in London last night, and it really was five stars. Held at the popular Cuckoo Club, the beverages were flowing, the canapés were delicious and most importantly the networking fever seemed to take hold of everyone.  Packed to the rafters with several hundred guests – the event was filled with young, energetic, passionate people across an array of industry sectors. In true British style, those attending all formed an orderly queue outside that stretched right down the road.

All in all, it was also a real cosmopolitan mix that truly reflected the multiculturalism of the British capital and the XING platform. Everyone had a common link – they were all willing to share and introduce themselves to new people and business opportunities.

Additionally everyone was green – not green with envy, but dressed in green as part of the nights Christmas and XING theme. Our London Ambassador, Kathrin Kawaters, was largely responsible for the night’s pace, passion and perfect atmosphere.  Well done Kathrin, and well done London for showing us how it’s done! We can’t wait until the next one!

Dear all,

congrats for this event but please confirm, was it a UK ambassador meeting or an international ambassador meeting?

Best,

Hello,

our international Ambassador meetings are official XING events organised by one of our official XING Ambassadors. These are very active users who are moderating our official XING Ambassador groups which are always connected to a city (like XING London; watch out for the orange logos!).
Besides that they are frequently organizing exclusive networking-events and bringing XING-users together face by face.

Regards from Hamburg

dear sebastian,

many thanks but being an ambassador nearly right from the beginning I was wondering why I was not invited nor never heard about these events?

MfG,

Hello Steve,
it has just been a regular regional Ambassador Event organized by our London Ambassador Kathrin Kawaters. Just London XING users have been directly invited to this event. Sorry for the misunderstanding!
Regards
Sebastian
