About the event
If traditional networking events leave you feeling overwhelmed or lost in the crowd, "Speedworking" is here to change that. Designed specifically for introverts, shy professionals, and anyone who prefers to skip the small talk and get straight to business, this event offers a focused, efficient, and low-pressure way to connect with like-minded professionals.
In just a short amount of time, you'll engage in small group conversations that are designed to maximize your networking potential and give you the opportunity to connect with every attendee. No fluff, no awkward pauses—just real connections with people who are here to grow their network as efficiently as you are.
Each participant will have 1-minute to introduce their business and share what they offer.
But that’s not all! We’re introducing a new community aspect to our Speedworking events. Each month, we will spotlight a local business that’s making a difference, and they’ll host a drive for a charity.
This month, we’re partnering with Guiding Sol Death Doulas to collect donations for the YWCA of Lynchburg. We encourage all attendees to bring one of the following items to support this cause:
- Cleaning supplies
- NEW personal hygiene items (deodorant, soap, combs, hair care products for all hair types)
- Laundry detergent
- Toilet paper
- Paper towels
Let’s grow our businesses while giving back to the community! RSVP is required. Space is limited, so secure your spot today!
