'Speed Networking' This Thursday
                       
The Chamber will hold a Speed Networking event on June 11 at 4 p.m. at 2 Witches Winery & Brewing Company (209 Trade Street, Danville).  Not familiar with the concept of speed networking?  Speed networking is based on a similar model to 'speed dating,' but it's designed for professionals to meet other professionals in four-minute increments with the goal of maximum exposure in a minimum time commitment.  After the speed networking, participants are welcome to stay for additional networking during a social hour, with cash bar available, to reconnect, collect additional business cards, and enjoy light refreshments.

There is a $20 registration fee for Chamber members and $25 for non-members.  Contact information of all participants will be provided to Chamber member attendees for post-event follow-up.

Seating is limited.  Registrations are limited to 30 people and will be accepted on a first come, first served basis with no direct competitors permitted.  Full attendance is vital for the success of this event.  The registration fee will not be refunded after June 5.

Contact the Chamber for more information at 434-836-6990 or email llawson@dpchamber.org to register.  More details are available here.
