We love helping talented doers find an outlet for their skills, and a community to support them. Since our start, we’ve helped entrepreneurs build small businesses from nothing, providing access to services that previously never would have been available to so many. In that spirit, we’re always looking to find ways to give freelancers opportunities to network with like-minded creatives, pursue real passions and engage with an empowering community.  And while online collaboration is changing the future of work, nothing beats meeting face-to-face. Enter: Fiverr Next, our newest series of events for the creative and entrepreneurial community to engage, learn, and network in person with doers just like you. If you're looking to level up, get inspired, and get involved in the Fiverr community, these events are for you. And to kick off the Next event series, we’re headed to a place where opportunities shine—the Sunshine State! As one of the largest cities for independent work in the U.S. and the site of a booming entrepreneurial startup scene, Miami is a hub of innovation. There’s no better place to launch Fiverr Next than this up-and-coming, vibrant city. Set in the historic Wynwood district at the LAB Miami on November 3, Fiverr Next: Miami will gather Miami’s most innovative companies, thought-leaders, and creative brands for a day packed with thoughtful discussions. Enjoy catering from the Salty Donut, center yourself with guided meditation from Modern OM, and get curated swag! All in one day, in one amazing location. Love to learn? You’ve come to the right place. Below is a sneak peek of the day's content, including panels with local Miami thought-leaders from Bacardi, Premonition AI, Imperative, Fiverr, DeepBlocks, Waterdiam, The Community, Antidote, the Fashion Poet, Chameleon, Catalyst Consulting, Fever Code, AWOM Labs, CIC Miami, and the Miami Herald.
