#Purafterworka: guinguette spirit for our AfterWork, celebrating a #NewStart #NewNorm #ReSet

 

☀️️#Sun 🎉#Fun💃 #Guinguette 🤟#Good Vibes

Gathering more than 100 people in the beautiful garden of Hotel Des Vignes in Sion, the theme of our first afterwork of the season was: guinguette.

A lot of people played the game and came up with a nice outfit to celebrate what was then a nice “art de vivre”. For those of you who are not familiar with guinguette, it describes a vintage way of enjoying summer in an open-air place with friends, drinks and music.

🚀 Back to events

This afterwork was the first of a new type of event, cozy, trendy and intimate! We were so happy to bring back our community together and share positive vibes.

We can now finally enjoy the summer, outside, together!

☕ + 🍹 New partners to join the PuraWorka adventure 

What would be an outdoor event without music? We had a nice band and a really cool DJ  who played nicely whilst our guests were enjoying their cocktails… Speaking of drinks and beverages… We are really excited to announce new partners. Come and check them out.

Check out their nice van and trucks.

You can enjoy a cup of coffee and try new drinks in our coworking space in Sion!

A special thank you also goes to our syrup partner, which were used for the cocktails. The PuraWorka mindset is also to adapt to any situation…that is what we did by providing each guest with a facial mask provided.

PuraMind Zermatt OnLine 2020 #SlowLife: a theme that became relevant more than ever! Theme 2020: SlowLife

Banner 3
At the end of 2019, before the world and our society took a new turn, the StartUp PuraWorka had already decided to opt
for SlowLife as the main thread of the event PuraMind 2020. The concept SlowLife seeks to decelerate the pace of our
modern life, at best becoming aware of its acceleration [FastLife].
This year online!

PuraMind 2020, initially planned over a whole weekend at the CoWorking PuraWorka of the new Hotel Mama Zermatt, had
to take a digital turn and will be held online in a shortened, and not faster, version on the morning of April 24, 2020.
The speakers, all entrepreneurs will discuss the integration of the concept SlowLife into their professional activities as well
as its “acceleration” during the current crisis. Nothing better to start the day than a Pilates session to boost your immune
system and breathe better.

PuraMind will then jump directly into the matter with the integration of the concept into new
organisational and working methods. The following session will deal with a key economic sector through SlowTourism.

Then, during times of Skyperos, participants will start being hungry with SlowFood, SlowDrink currently not conceptualised.
In conclusion, Sandrine Julen, Zermatt hotelier, will draw up lessons learned from the morning. Having grown up in Valais
and then traveled around the world, Sandrine Julen represents a generation coming from a family of mountaineers who
became entrepreneurs, now looking for a balance between these two notions of Fast / SlowLife.

For PuraMind 2020 online, Neil Beecroft, c-founder of PuraWorka, wishes to maintain and promote a strong interaction
between speakers and participants through the format ‘FishBowl’, a form of dialogue that can be used to exchange on
subjects in large groups, to discover this Friday, April 24, from 8:00 a.m. until 12:00 p.m CET.

PuraMind 2020 has already reached its goal of gathering as much participant.es from Valais, Switzerland and all around the
world. This became real through the current acceleration of digitalisation.

 

In order to participate in discussions on SlowLife,
don’t hesitate to join the debates, agenda below.

A Huge Success – PuraMind Zermatt [26-28 April 2k19]

It all started with a simple idea and ended up in a full weekend with plenty of inspiring connections, fun moments and creating ideas for a better future – short the first edition of PuraMind was a great success!

To our (nice) surprise it was dumping snow (end of April!) on Friday morning. This meant last minute change management. Anyways – this didn’t stop us, we moved our planned welcome-drinks inside into our new summer CoWorking Location at Comina Office in the heart of Zermatt. As soon as the first guests arrived, drinks as well as conversations started to flow. Like minded people easily connected, the apéro took off- music sparked and the group decided to go for dinner together.. Everyone though stayed quite calm since..

Saturday morning began very active! For some, an adventurous Fatbike ride with Beat Habegger from Fat Bike & Ski through the forests of Zermatt, for others with a firm & steady Yoga class with Anita Locher from Zermattbalance. Lastly, lucky skiers enjoyed the pow’ with Matterhorn Diamonds.

The main part of PuraMind were the talks on Saturday afternoon. In the beautiful location of Hotel Sonne the room was full, people gathered together to listen to five Keynote speeches. The guiding topic of antifragility (at the start, only clear 😀 for Neil – PuraWorka CoFounder), started to make sense with every new talk. Seeing successful speakers sharing struggles they had overcome and also listening to their vision was a true inspiration. The atmosphere in the room was hard to describe but shiny eyes spoke. It was a true moment of magic, shaping a movement.

After PuraWorka during the season, PuraMind during the day, it now was time for some PuraVida. The crowd moved down to Elsie’s Bar located just in front of the legendary church square of Zermatt. This cosy and authentic bar was the perfect place to spend a festive evening. After a couple of local drinks, which kept us h(o)ppy with some ‘bon vin’, a rich BBQ lit fire, conversations and new connections kept on flowing. Lots of smiley faces and a relaxed atmosphere is something we definitely keep warmly in our hearts when looking back. Young and older put on their best dancing moves as mountain and music vibes gave an end to a fantastic second day.

After (for some) quite a short night, Sunday morning surprised us with some more snow. Nicolas Fontaine (PuraWorka COO) was seen running around with coffee machines. Some early birds joined Anita Jetzer (PuraWorka Community Manager) for a connected breath and movement session before joining a colorful and delicious Brunch. After midday, PuraMind continued with the movie of Demain Genève followed by inspiring workshops lead by sustainability, innovation and entrepreneurship experts.
