Believe it or not, Speed-Networking is just what it sounds like – quick, focused opportunities to meet those who can boost your career and business. It's designed to maximize quality, lasting, professional connections in a short period of time.
Attendees have about 2 minutes with each partner until directed to move on to meet someone new. It is the hope that these connections will lead to follow-up meetings, lunches and referrals down the road.
Be sure to bring plenty of business cards and prepare a 1 minute “elevator speech” to tell each partner about yourself or your business.
