Women entrepreneurs, business owners and professionals in Ibiza will have an opportunity to expand their networks and explore new business connections at CONECTA, a speed networking event taking place on Saturday 14 November 2026.
Organised by Ibiza Town Hall and Tanit Ibiza Conexión, the event will be held at the Casal d'Igualtat in Ibiza Town from 17:00 to 20:30. The initiative forms part of the activities surrounding International Women's Entrepreneurship Day, which is observed on 19 November.
Under the slogan Conoce · Comparte · Conecta (Meet · Share · Connect), the event is designed to bring together women from different professional backgrounds, encouraging them to exchange experience, present their projects and identify opportunities for collaboration.
Seven-Minute Meetings to Build Professional Connections
The central activity will be a series of individual speed networking meetings, with each participant given seven minutes to introduce her business or project, explain what she is looking for and outline what she can offer to other professionals.
The format is intended to make professional introductions more focused and productive, helping participants identify shared interests and potential areas for cooperation.
The registration process will allow the organisers to understand the professional profiles and interests of attendees in advance. These include finding business partners, accessing mentoring, securing financing, identifying suppliers, discovering talent and increasing the visibility of their projects.
The programme will also feature short presentations from participating businesses and a Muro de Oportunidades, or Opportunity Wall, where attendees can share their services, requirements and proposals for collaboration.
Actress Maggie Civantos to Give Special Talk
One of the highlights of the afternoon will be a special conference by Spanish actress Maggie Civantos, titled Historias que transforman (Stories That Transform).
Civantos, widely recognised for her role in the television series Vis a vis, will contribute a different perspective to the programme, which combines professional networking with inspiration and personal experiences.
The event will conclude with an open networking session, giving participants further time to continue conversations and explore connections made during the organised meetings.
Following the event, the organisers also plan to gather feedback and identify which professional relationships participants would like to maintain.
Supporting Women in Business in Ibiza
CONECTA is intended to create a space where women working across Ibiza's business and professional communities can meet, exchange resources and discover opportunities that might otherwise remain outside their networks.
Sara Barbado, the town councillor responsible for Equality, has highlighted the importance of providing women entrepreneurs and professionals with opportunities to connect and share resources. Eva Ballarín and Alicia Reina, co-founders of Tanit Ibiza Conexión, have also emphasised the value of meaningful professional conversations and the potential for local businesses and initiatives to support one another.
The organisers stress that the purpose of the event is to facilitate professional relationships rather than guarantee employment, investment or commercial agreements.
CONECTA will take place on Saturday 14 November, from 17:00 to 20:30, at the Casal d'Igualtat, Avinguda de la Pau, 3, in Ibiza Town. Advance registration is available through the event registration form.
