What to Expect

Freelancing isn’t just about doing great work, it’s also about knowing how to run yourself as a business. In this inspirational debate with Robert Vlach, we’ll open the floor to a discussion (in English) on the core skills that shape a sustainable freelance career.

Expect a lively, practical exchange around themes such as:

• Pricing your work (and staying confident about it)
• Negotiating with clients and setting boundaries
• Finding and attracting new clients
• Freelance marketing strategies that actually work
• Managing your finances and planning for stability

The debate will be structured in two parts, with time in between to refresh, reflect, and continue the conversation informally:

Part I: 5:30 PM – 6:45 PM

Break (drinks, bites & networking): 6:45 PM – 7:15 PM

Part II: 7:15 PM – 8:30 PM

Everyone is welcome to share, question, or simply listen, whether you’re new to freelancing or have been doing it for years.
