📸 FOMO Munich: Let's Talk about Money - Part 2 with Qonto is On! | 04.11 - 10.11

Servus Munich! 👋

After a successful first edition with Qonto a few months ago, we’re back with the next chapter of our “Let’s Talk About Money” series. This time, we’re diving into a topic every founder eventually faces, why it’s not stupid to have a second bank account. Expect an evening that brings together fast-growing founders and small business owners for real talk about one of the most underestimated growth challenges: messy money management.

On another note, join our new FOMO WhatsApp Group: Cape Town ⛰.
