For our Members we now have:
Coffee & Connects; Shut up and Work; WhatsApp groups and Business Quarterlies.
For Members, as well as non-members we have a series of Affiliate events:
Regional Gatherings; Forum and our AGM.
Let's Talk is another event we want to continue offering our community - for Members as well as non-Members.
The Let's Talk series emerged from the FIGT community zoom calls after the virtual conferences in 2022 and 2021, where there was recognition that the community needs to connect throughout the year. Added to this, was the intention to show the even broader community that we have active, regular discussions on topics of potential interest and that we can continue enriching the globally mobile lifestyle.
Let’s Talk until today…..
In the last year (2023/2024) four sessions have been held -
In Jan 2023 (Caregiving as Expats); May 2023 (Ruth van Reken on creating FIGT); April 2024 (Diversity - during the 2024 Forum) and August 2024 (Diversity continued).
Going forward;
Plans are being made for three more sessions in 2025.
Let's Talk will be made up of sessions that cover different characteristics; outlined below
➡ It will be provided by a variety of individuals, from across the globe,
➡ A variety of different topics,
➡ Lastly with areas of interest which fall under our general Mission and Values and which are relevant to our 'community'.
The timing and dates will be flexible, to accommodate the different time-zones of our members, as well as our speakers. Depending on the topic, Sessions will be recorded or summarized for those unable to attend on the day/time chosen.
Let's Talk will be free for our members, but carry a fee for non-members who wish to attend. Speakers do not need to be Members to speak at these events, but will be required to follow FIGT's principles.
Our next Let's Talk event can be seen, and registered for here.
