Do you need a good excuse to travel around Europe, taking in the sights and sounds of thousands of years of history, along with a great showing of the wonders of modern technology? Check out these five European networking business events to justify your trip around Europe:
The User Modeling, Adaptation, and Personalization Conference
If you’re in a line of work that ranks the ability to adapt a product or service to a particular user, or group of users – and that covers the majority of us – then the User Modeling, Adaptation, and Personalization Conference in Rome is the place for you.
Besides learning about the research and statistics behind this endeavor, helping you to better understand your own business, you’ll also get the chance to rub shoulders with a wide variety of successful businessmen and women, giving you to opportunity to lengthen your list of contacts at the same time.
When and Where: Visit the wonderfully historic city of Rome, Italy from June 10-14, 2013, giving yourself access to a deep look at the way that you run your business, even as you get to relax and take in the sights of what is arguably the world’s most beautiful city. If you plan to stay a while, you can improve your trip and save money at the same time by booking great accommodations at Romehotels.org!
The Social Media Influence 2013
Social networks, tools, and other technologies are quickly emerging as the true future of business, and that’s the focus taken by the Social Media Influence event. You’ll join the best and brightest of businesspeople from around the world as each of you learns how you can put social media to work for your brand.
When and Where: You’ll get to stop by London, England if you’ve got the Social Media Influence 2013 event marked on your calendar! The conference itself will take place on June 14, 2013 only, giving you all of the free time you need to explore the city on your own terms and on your own time.

When and Where: The London, England stop on the Social Business Summit itinerary will have you there on June 20, 2013; taking up only a single day, you’ll surely be able to get away from it all before or after – or both!
The Mobile Tech Conference
No matter which line of work that you happen to find yourself in, you can bet that emerging mobile technology plays some role in it, and that makes attending the Mobile Tech Conference in Germany a worthy way to prepare for the future, even as you explore what the northern European landscape has to offer to your senses.
When and Where: From September 2 through September 5, 2013, you’ll be able to learn what mobile technology means to your business, taking the time afterwards to indulge in the beautiful city of Berlin, Germany.
The Social Business Collaboration Summit
Whether you work in high-level finance, or develop content for the web, understanding the fine points and challenges of the social aspect of your business could mean the difference between success and failure. Thankfully, joining up with the more than 100 attendees expected to attend this year’s Social Business Collaboration Summit will give you access to the speakers, workshops, and networking opportunities that you need to socialize yourself, and your business.
When and Where: Taking place in the same city later that month is the Social Business Collaboration Summit, running from September 23-24, 2013, and giving you all of the excuse that you need to turn your trip to Berlin into a satisfyingly long one.
