Innovative Networking for Entrepreneurs


This "speed networking inspired" event is facilitated to help you meet more like-minded innovators & leaders, have better conversations, and make meaningful connections...without the typical networking awkwardness.

  • No standing around nervously, we will help you be introduced and get into meaningful conversations about what you are working on.

  • You will be facilitated through quick, one-on-one conversations that could lead to new solutions, knowledge, resources, and collaborations.

  • Share a new innovation you are fostering or a challenge you are working on, and get insight from fellow participants.

  • Give and gain insight from a number of different individuals.

  • This is an innovative, interactive approach to networking and co-creation, designed to focus conversations and catalyze relationships.
