People say, “Don’t mix business with pleasure”, and we really don’t understand that. What’s wrong with having a great time while making connections to help your career?  

Clearly, Grey — the brand that makes international payments easier than making eba — doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with that. They’re hosting a beach party where you can have a great time and still make great connections, and we know all the types of people that’ll definitely show up at it.

The ones who came just to party

These ones are about to walk into the party and forget the networking part of the event. They’re just there to have a good time and enjoy their life.

The tech brothers and sisters

No, it’s not a tech event. But Grey is a fintech company, and whenever anyone breathes “fintech”, the rich tech siblings are never too far away.

The social butterfly

Our apologies to the person who decides to cling to their sides at the event. They know everybody in the room, and nothing will stop them from having conversations with all of them.

The follow-come

They don’t really know what the event is about. All they know is their friend told them to come, and they carried their two legs in.

The ones who are there for the liquor

This group of people saw Flying Fish was partnering and quickly ran to find their fit for the event.

The die-hard networkers

These ones heard “networking”, and their ears perked up. They’ll most likely be in business casual with their iPad and packs of business cards not too far away.

The content creators

They heard “networking event”, and the first thing that popped into their head was CONTENT. They’re never too hard to spot. Catch them with a drink in one hand and a tripod in the other.

The mami watas

These ones would attend any event near a body of water. So when they heard “beach party”, best believe they packed their load and hauled themselves there.
