Speed Networking: BCBA

Stay tuned a Speed Networking event with BCBA (Branch County Business Affiliates) is coming in May at their 501.

What is Speed Networking?
"The concept is much the same as speed dating: you pair up with someone you’ve never met before for a set amount of time, typically anywhere from 30 seconds to 5 minutes. At an in-person event, the sound of a bell or buzzer signals when it’s time to move on to the next partner, whereas at a virtual event, the host will bring you back to the main meeting. This continues for around an hour. Depending on how many people attend, you may have the chance to speak to almost everyone or just a portion of the group.

Typically, a speed networking event ends with the chance to mingle more naturally. You can use this opportunity to continue talking with someone (perhaps to discuss an opportunity in-depth or to schedule a meeting at a later date) or to talk with people you were unable to meet as part of the speed part of the networking."
