SUMMARY:Houston Speed Networking | NetworkNite | Business Professionals Event
DESCRIPTION:Speed Networking works a lot like ‘Speed Dating’ without the ‘Dating’. A structured opportunity to meet accomplished professionals just like yourself\, face to face\, one business professional at time. Whether you are an entrepreneur\, small business owner\, legal or medical professional\, in the finance\, real estate or entertainment industry – our events offer the perfect occasion to expand your business\, social or enterprise contacts. All in a setting and speed – just your style. Devoid of typical business networking event staples – we have done away with whistles\, bells and over-the-top event trimmings. We feel building business relationships should be a comfortable\, sophisticated and relaxed venture. An opportunity to create opportunities. Our hosts will assist you with your NetworkNite ‘Connect-Card’. After being shown to your table\, you will move from business professional to business professional every 5-6 minutes. Simply mark down whom you would be interested in connecting with again on your NetworkNite ‘Connect-Card’ and we’ll take care of the rest. You also always have the option of exchanging business cards should you feel so inclined. For those whom garner connections\, you will be notified via e-mail within 24 hours of the event with your ‘Connect-Card’ results. Once the Speed Networking has completed and all participants have had the opportunity to meet each other – you are welcome to stay and mingle. All we need are the ‘Connect-Cards’ to determine your business connections. \nSource and tickets: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/houston-speed-networking-networknite-business-professionals-event-tickets-2002920424908

SUMMARY:GWEN 1-Day Experience -Houston
DESCRIPTION:Join women entrepreneurs in Houston for a day of connection\, transformation & growth — GWEN style. EQ over IQ. Love over competition. Join women entrepreneurs in Houston for a day of entrepreneurial connection\, transformation & growth — GWEN style. EQ over IQ. Love over competition. For over two decades\, the free-agent entrepreneurs of GWEN have been helping one another grow their businesses by expanding their connections. Corporations value intellect (IQ). Entrepreneurs lead with both intellect and heart (EQ). One day of genuine connection with supportive women entrepreneurs can do more for your business than months spent trying to grow alone. While the world is often drawn to data\, women gather wisdom through storytelling.

What to Expect GWEN is a new spirit of cooperation between women entrepreneurs. While business often rewards competition\, entrepreneurs build something stronger through trust\, encouragement\, and collaboration. This one-day Houston conference brings together business owners for a day of connection\, storytelling\, and personal growth\, the kind you won’t find in business school or a typical seminar. People skills are the power tools of the service economy. Relationships are the foundation of every successful business. Come build connections that outlast the event\, practice authentic collaboration\, exchange ideas with inspiring women\, and walk away with relationships that… \nSource and tickets: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/gwen-1-day-experience-houston-tickets-1997268938159
