Dragobete is the Romanian equivalent of St. Valentine. It always falls on Wednesday.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The day is particularly known as "the day when the birds are betrothed". It is around this time that the birds begin to build their nests and mate. On this day, considered locally the first day of spring, boys and girls gather vernal flowers and sing together. Maidens used to collect the snow that lay on the ground in many villages and then melt it, using the water in magic potions throughout the rest of the year. Those who take part in Dragobete customs are supposed to be protected from illness, especially fevers, for the rest of the year. If the weather allows, girls and boys pick snowdrops or other early spring plants for the person they are courting. In Romania, Dragobete is known as a day for lovers, rather like Valentine's Day.

What was initially a networking meet in French became Bucharest's landmark in terms of relaxed networking. I'm inviting you to celebrate with us.

The rules
The event is open to everyone.
Please give us your business card when you check in at registration. WE DO NOT provide your information to others and never sell/share our attendee's list. If you don't have one, that's ok.
The success of this event is the result of people "Playing It Forward". You may have see/heard of the movie "Pay It Forward". If you like what you've seen and experienced here…….please be sure to tell your friends and colleagues and invite them as well. In other words….."Play It Forward".
No literature or promotional materials on tables. We have no problem with you handing materials to people you speak with, but please don't leave it on tables or on the bar.
Suggestions
Please Respect Everyone & Don't Blow Someone Totally Off. You never know who the person you are talking to knows. They don’t have to be a good prospect to be a good connection. Their friend, neighbor or family member could be the person you would really love to do business with and you want to make sure you don't miss that opportunity. That doesn't mean you need to spend 30 minutes speaking with someone you don't wish to know better. Hone your networking skills to meet and be gracious to as many people as possible.
You should purchase at least a drink at the bar. The venue is generous enough not to charge for the space. You should be courteous enough to give them some business.
Please be generous to your hardworking Bartenders, Servers and Valets. They are working hard to make sure you have a good evening. Show them your appreciation.
