From painters, building services, landscaping and roofers through banks, insurance companies and real estate to lighting systems, lawyers and car garages, a colourful mix of industries is represented at the weekly r.u.n. Since the beginning of the year we at Vanillaplan have been part of it too. Every Wednesday morning the members of the Regionales Unternehmer Netzwerk, or r.u.n. for short, meet for around an hour at the Kulturhotel Guggenheim in Liestal for breakfast.

Over tasty croissants, jam and coffee, an informal exchange develops between different industries. Small anecdotes about price increases from suppliers, setting up new telephone systems at customers' premises and the switch from paper invoices to QR codes offer an insight into the working world of all participants. In addition, there is also a structured exchange of knowledge: at every meeting there is a short training session of around three minutes for the group. Here too the topics are varied - sometimes legal, for example on the subject of guarantees, another time there are suggestions on marketing or business management topics.

Regularly, in talks of around ten minutes, participants or guests present new projects, for example the construction of an apartment building or the design of a new event location. To finish, professional and personal highlights are shared once more in a short round, recommendations are made and referred business is acknowledged with thanks. Besides the weekly meetings there are also annual events such as joint dinners and a skiing weekend.

For us, the r.u.n. offers a great opportunity to exchange ideas and network, and we are already looking forward to the next meeting!
