You may find several other groups besides the online community that you may also consider being a part of. Professional offline networks in Austria are very helpful in growing one’s career in the country. Take for example Wings Network, which is an offline network and leadership development platform for professional women staying in Austria. They welcome professional expat women from any industry. This group has already gathered over 3,500 women all over the country and consists of 90 different nationalities. They have also been known to be consistent in putting up events of more or less 600 annually. Involving in groups such as this allows you to expand your network and connect with people from different industries for career growth. If you desire to just be part of any event, whether you are a male or a female, you may also want to check out YMCB for a list of networking events that will happen in Vienna throughout the year.

You may also want to sign up and be part of an offline group through meetup.com. Meetup is a website where you can connect to people nearby who may share common interests with you. May it be a hobby, a favorite sport you like, or a similar line of business, you can grow with the right people by being a part of niche groups in Meetup.
