NYC speed networking
events for
New York business professionals looking to make new
connections.
Why
NYC (New York) Speed Networking?
Traditional
NYC business networking events can sometimes be very
unproductive. People naturally move towards those
they may already know and never get the opportunity to
|
meet others who could be great
business contacts. In this structured
business networking environment you will interact with many
individuals that you may have never
otherwise had the chance to network with.
Even if someone you meet does not directly relate to your
business, you may know someone who would be a great contact
for them, or vice versa.
Since each face to face speed networking
session lasts about
four minutes, you will not get stuck in an unwanted long
conversation trying to figure out how to end a conversation.
Our business networking events take place in Nassau
and Suffolk Counties on Long Island.
What is Networking?
New York Business Networking is about building and
developing a long term relationship where both parties
develop a comfort level with each other, and want to help one
another. It is about talking and getting to know people. You exchange ideas, brainstorm
about topics, give advice, and share business contacts. What
you have to offer someone is just as important as what you
hope to gain from a new business relationship. You have
to give to get.
Networking is about helping people, anticipating
that you will also be helped |

How the events
work
Individuals attending the events will come from various
lines of business, all sharing a common theme of servicing a
particular geographic market. You will have 12-20 face
to face networking sessions during the event, each one lasting
about 4 minutes. During each session, each person will
share information about themselves, looking for synergies,
offering contacts, providing ideas, and exchanging business
cards. Do you know someone that this person should talk
to? Do they know someone that would be a great business
contact for you?
The organizer will signal the end of round one and half of the
attendees will rotate to the next station. The process
continues for about an hour. We will take a short
break and then begin rounds two and three where you continue
meeting the other attendees. Each
participant will be provided with a notes card at the
event that provides other attendees names and contact
information.
Note: We take a maximum of 26 people per event to ensure that
you have a chance to meet with everyone.
What you need to do for the event
For starters you will want to bring plenty of business cards.
You should also come prepared and follow these simple tips
from Lucy Rosen of the
Business Development Group:
-
Know your
business, and know it well;
-
Be able to
describe what you do in a few clear sentences; and
-
Know what you
want and need from networking and what you have to offer.
