𝗠𝘆 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗽 𝗼𝗳 𝗲𝗧𝗼𝗿𝗼’𝘀 𝗣𝗼𝗽𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘁 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱 𝗶𝗻 𝗖𝘆𝗽𝗿𝘂𝘀 / 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝟭 Last week, me and many other PI’s attended eToro’s Popular Investor Summit, which took place in Cyprus this year. Now that I’m back home and fully rested, I wanted to share with you all my experience. I tried to keep it short yet packed with insights and takeaways from the event 🙂 Stay tuned for part two on Friday 📅, where I’ll focus more on the Popular Investors (and share a few fun stories too 😉) ▪️ 𝙂𝙚𝙣𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙡 𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝𝙩𝙨: Compared to the event last year which took place in Hull (UK), you could really see how much the group of PIs has evolved. Many of us already knew each other, which paved the way for helpful and insightful conversations 🤝. In the end, this is the main reason why you travel half the world (in my case 😉) to go to a summit. The real beauty of a summit is the exchange of ideas and the chance to see the investing world from different perspectives 👀, while learning from others. ▪️ 𝘾𝙤𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙤𝙛 𝙨𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨: The summit had a nice balance between general sessions and specific sessions which you could choose from. There was a lot of emphasis on AI 🤖, which is not a surprise, as this is a technology that is now omnipresent in our lives. The Women Investors panel was a great session led by eToro’s COO 👩‍💼 and one of the company’s board members. Learning from such powerful women was not only inspirational but actionable 💪. They talked about the importance of focus and hard work, two principles that I feel are key for success on any field of life. I also adored Amy Butler’s and Sam North’s session on Media and Communication 🎙️, extremely helpful sessions! ▪️ 𝙋𝙤𝙥𝙪𝙡𝙖𝙧 𝙄𝙣𝙫𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙧 𝙋𝙧𝙤𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙢: This was a specific session led by eToro’s @popularinvestors team, @ShaniBlackman, Gil Shapira and Tomer Blatt. We explored in depth the most important aspects of being a PI. One key takeaway was the importance of communication with our copiers 💬 and the trust you put in us. These are things that I have said many times myself in the past but knowing how important it is for them as well, really hit home ❤️. It is also nice to learn that the program is constantly evolving and keeps getting better and more professional. ▪️ 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙚𝙏𝙤𝙧𝙤 𝙏𝙚𝙖𝙢: You can only do good business with people you feel connected with. I am happy to say the members of the @eToroTeam are not only extremely skilled at their work, but they are also one by one fantastic people 🌟. For this summit they brought a big part of the team to Cyprus. Not only did we get to meet them all, but they were also extremely open and receptive to our comments and ideas 💡. I deeply appreciated having the opportunity to chat with @YoniAssia as he always takes the time to make each PI feel special and heard. ▪️ 𝙆𝙚𝙮𝙣𝙤𝙩𝙚 𝙎𝙥𝙚𝙖𝙠𝙚𝙧: This year they invited YouTuber and content creator NASDaily 📹. As a person who barely watches TV and whose main entertainment platform is YouTube ▶️ this was a meeting very close to my heart. I posted a video on my Instagram (@investbites) with his insights about storytelling. His talk was extremely motivational and left a strong impact on all of us 💥 ▪️ 𝙈𝙖𝙧𝙠𝙚𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙚𝙖𝙢: There was space for interviews, chats and activities for promotion. It was so nice to meet the marketing team and to see them in action 💫: how they set up tripods, lighting, how they choose backgrounds. The amount of work and level of detail that goes behind any video is crazy. @TaliaBlank, Sharon Koch and Natasha Rusch are absolute stars 🌟 ▪️ 𝘼𝙄 𝙎𝙝𝙤𝙬𝙘𝙖𝙨𝙚: We had a specialized session overseeing apps developed by different PIs. I like the use of AI when it serves a purpose and has meaning 🎯, so this was a very interesting session and ignited some good ideas that I will apply to my own future apps 🚀 ▪️ 𝙎𝙤𝙘𝙞𝙖𝙡 𝙢𝙚𝙙𝙞𝙖: Well, guess what? I earned a medal 🏅 as 𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐭 𝐒𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫, and it was a gesture that meant so much to me 💖. I have put a lot of effort into my instagram account this year, and I still have tons of creative things I want to introduce. So yes, this is a big push for me to keep working hard providing interesting content and cool insights 😎, and of course something of value to you all 💫 So, this wraps up 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝟏 ✅ See you all on Friday! 👋 Cata 💚
