Lunch & Learn: Boosting Collective Learning and Networking

16 October 2025 by

At Foster Rosières, we believe that sustainable growth arises when entrepreneurs take a step back to learn, connect, and be inspired. That’s why we organise exclusive "Lunch & Learn" formats dedicated to the challenges faced by SMEs..

The ‘Lunch & Learn’ format 

Good food, a compelling topic, and engaged participants = a truly effective session. 

  • Last year, Karin Maquet, a coach specializing in startups and scale-ups led a workshop for women entrepreneurs: ‘Boost Your Business by Leveraging a Strong Network.’ Program: strategies for integrating networking into a busy schedule, communication techniques, and digital tools for managing contacts. 
  • We recently launched a new Lunch & Learn: ‘Episode #1: Deploying AI in Business’ featuring Valérie Zapico. The goal: go beyond the AI hype and make it a true driver for SMEs. 

What makes these formats so effective? 

  • They provide a semi-formal environment where learning and exchange go hand in hand. 
  • Gathering participants for lunch fosters a relaxed atmosphere and informal chats—essential for networking. 
  • The topics are chosen to respond to practical needs (networking, AI, performance) in a stimulating setting. 
  • eing in a space that blends nature and coworking makes the sessions more effective, helping participants step out of the traditional office mindset. 

Why Partnerships Matter 

Foster Rosières partners with experts to run these events, enabling us to offer: 

  • High-quality content 
  • A targeted audience (women entrepreneurs, SMEs) 
  • Evolving and relevant formats.
