Softpro Mixer Cotonou · 30th May 2026
Meet The People Who Can Matter To Your Next Move
A focused business and tech mixer in Cotonou for founders, innovators, investors, developers, executives, operators, and business builders looking for high-value conversations beyond their usual circle.
Come to scale your business, meet collaborators or co-founders, recruit top talent, attract useful introductions, and connect inside Benin’s tech and business ecosystem.
Why This Matters
You Need More Than Skill
You may already be good at what you do.
But if the people who should know you never get close enough to hear what you're working on, many opportunities can pass you by.
A useful introduction can open a new door.
A high-value conversation can make your work easier to trust.
One strong connection can lead to a client, partner, hire, investor, collaborator, or market you couldn't reach alone.
That's why Softpro Mixer exists.
It brings founders, innovators, investors, developers, and executives into one focused setting for high-value conversations, strategic one-on-one connections, and introductions that can move work forward.
If you've been doing the work, this is a chance to let the right people meet the person behind it.
Inside Softpro Mixer
Designed For Real Conversations, Not Stiff Networking
Softpro Mixer is built to make entry easier, even if you’re not the type to walk into a room and start pitching yourself immediately.
You’ll have the panel, guided introductions, contact exchange, food, drinks, and informal moments that make useful follow-up feel more natural.
Live interactive networking sessions
Guided moments that make it easier to start conversations without forcing your way into the room.
Strategic one-on-one connections
Room for deeper conversations with people who may become collaborators, partners, hires, investors, or useful introductions.
Dinner, drinks, and karaoke
Relaxed parts of the evening help people unwind, talk more naturally, and create shared moments beyond business talk.
More than a panel
The panel gives you ideas. The networking, food, drinks, and informal moments help those ideas turn into real connections.

What The Room Will Open Up
Conversations For People Thinking Beyond Their Current Level
At Softpro Mixer, the discussion won’t be built around buzzwords or empty tech talk. It’ll focus on practical questions ambitious people are already asking:
How do I use AI to work and grow smarter?
Practical ways AI can support business, operations, marketing, hiring, content, customer experience, and decisions.
How do I scale beyond my current circle?
How to reach new cities, countries, partners, clients, or communities without moving blindly.
How do I attract collaborators, talent, or investment?
How to make your work clearer, more credible, and easier for the right people to back, join, or recommend.
How do more of the right people discover what I do?
How to become easier to notice, trust, refer, and invite into better conversations.
How do I turn one conversation into a useful next step?
How to follow up with people in a way that can lead to partnerships, hires, clients, or future opportunities.
