Speed Networking International!

GABC tried something new with this event… After drinks, appetizers and introductions in a casual restaurant, attendees paired up in rows. Each person had 4 minutes to get to know the international professional sitting across the table. They could ask the other person questions about their job, or share info about their own company, product or professional needs—it was totally up to the attendee. For those that found something in common, great! They could continue the conversation at leisure over dinner afterward. Not a good fit? No problem! At the sound of the bell, everyone slid over a seat, and began again. Fun, fast-paced, surprisingly effective.
