Introducing Member Spotlight ✨

A new series about our members building, leading, and creating impact around the world.

First up: Tosho Trajanov, Co-Founder of Adeva, acquired this year by Toptal.

But his story isn’t about the milestone. It’s about two things.

→ Move forward without waiting to feel ready
→ Fulfillment is found along the way, not at the finish line

This is only #1. Follow along, or join our community.

Last Saturday, our very own Tosho Trajanov and Nikola Serafimovski hosted Off the Clock: Ideas & Drinks in Ohrid, and it was a great reminder of why we love bringing people together.

Good conversations, new connections, tasty Macedonian wine, good food by Lake Ohrid, and plenty of ideas shared around the table.

Thanks to everyone who joined, and a special thanks to Tosho and Nikola for making it happen. 🍷🍽️

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us for Off the Clock: Ideas & Drinks in Munich 🇩🇪✨

Our sincere thanks to @grozdanovv_ for hosting the evening and creating a space where our community could come together, connect, and exchange ideas.

Sometimes, the most meaningful conversations happen without an agenda. No panels, no presentations, just genuine conversations, new connections, and relationships that continue long after the gathering ends.

We’re proud to continue creating spaces that bring our global Macedonian community closer together, strengthening connections, inspiring collaboration, and building meaningful relationships around the world.

We look forward to seeing you at the next gathering 🇲🇰

Something big is coming 👀

Together with @imteddy and Gjorgji Georgievski we’re bringing together a room you’ll want to be in: a small circle, very special guests, and conversations you won’t hear anywhere else - for the very first time, in San Francisco.

📅 Save the evening of May 12
More details coming soon - follow @globalmacedonians to stay in the loop!

This time, we’re doing something different.

Wednesday next week, we’re hosting Ideas & Drinks afterwork in Zurich 🍸

No agenda - the idea is to bring people from different worlds into the same room, from AI to finance, medicine to energy, and spark some good conversations.

If you enjoy meeting smart people, exchanging ideas, and having conversations that go a bit beyond the usual small talk, you’ll probably like this.

Note: Global Macedonians members get 2 complimentary drinks on arrival!

✨ Proud moment for our community ✨

In June last year, a simple meeting with the Society of Physicists of Macedonia grew into Global Macedonians supporting the 7th Balkan Physics Olympiad in Ohrid - bringing together talented students from 17 countries.

We’re especially proud of the Macedonian team, who won four bronze medals and one honorable mention 👏

A big thank you to our members and friends of Global Macedonians whose donations made this possible. This is what happens when a global community invests in young talent and education.

Grateful for the recognition - and even more grateful for the people behind it. To much more impact in 2026 🎯
