SUMMARY:ProConnect: Daring to Build
DESCRIPTION:ProConnect: Angela Rocha\, PhD\nDaring to Build\n🎉You’re invited!\nDaring to Build: Turning Conviction into Reality \nSome people wait for permission. Others build anyway.\nBuilding something meaningful rarely starts with perfect conditions. It starts with a question. A frustration. A quiet conviction that things could be better. \nAt our next Prowoc member event\, Angela will share her journey of transforming a personal insight into a science-driven food company — and what it truly takes to build when the path is unclear\, the category doesn’t exist yet\, and the answers must be created along the way. \nFrom idea to product\, from doubt to direction\, the journey has demanded courage\, patience\, and a deep belief in building solutions that matter. \nTogether\, we’ll explore:\n• What gives you the courage to start before you feel ready?\n• How do you keep believing when progress is invisible?\n• How do you turn obstacles into fuel instead of friction?\n• What does it mean to build with purpose\, not just profit?\nJoin us for an open and honest conversation about courage\, resilience\, and the quiet power of choosing to build — even when no one is asking you to. \n🗓️ Date: February 21st\, 2026\n🕐Time: 13:00 – 15:00\n📌Location: Esbjerg Library\, Nørregade 19\, 6700 Esbjerg\n🪙 Price: Free for everyone \nEvent Agenda\n13:00–13:15: Welcome by ProWoC\n13:15–14:00: Talk: Daring to Build\n14:00–14:30: Q&A\n14:30-15:00: Networking
