Networking in the time of catastrophe

On Tuesday evening I went to an event held by Democrats Abroad to watch the US election results over some biers - quite a few beers actually.

Obviously I am not a Democrat not least as I am not an American. But I have, and have had, strong connections with the US and also beer.

(There isn't a Republican equivalent of DA probably because I suspect most republicans are afraid of "foreign". In any case even if I was an American I wouldn't be a Republican either).

There were some Hash House Harriers there (I'm a member of the two Munich kennels) and one introduced me to a woman she brought along.

And she works for a big consortium in the innovation apps area.

We exchanged business cards and LinkedIn connections. Since then I've been racking my brains to see how our app would work for their business.

I've now figured out how it would work and in fact it would fit really well with their business - I may have been a bit tired after a night of lots of beer; shock, horror and disgust; and ending after 5am on Wednesday morning.
