1pm - 4pm

Staples Studio, Kelowna

Welcoming any person interested in turning their passion into profit,

seasoned entrepreneurs, and start-ups!

Come join us for a unique afternoon filled with curated conversations that will make it easy to connect authentically with other like-minded entrepreneurs. You’ll leave with new friends, potential business partners, and ideas for collaborations that will boost your business, and more importantly nourish your heart.

We’ll eliminate the awkward introductions we’re all used to at regular networking events where you wonder who already knows each other and what to say first!

Instead, we’ll move around in small groups, and guide you through inspiring prompts that will allow us to dive into deeper conversations that are proven to create authentic conversations so we can learn a lot about each other in a short amount of time. 

This process results in developing real relationships that actually last, creating opportunity for self-reflection, and expanding self-awareness so you can start to notice more opportunities around you.

What’s included:

• Appetizers and snacks

• Coffee, tea, kombucha and other beverages

• Purposeful conversations to facilitate deep connections

• Opportunity to learn about featured businesses

• Door prizes and gift bags from local businesses

You will walk away with:

• Names and contacts that you are genuinely excited to connect with

• Feeling like you really know the people you met

• Awareness of other creative businesses that are local

• Knowing you have things in common with others at the event

• Specific ideas for collaborations

• Familiarity with people who started out as strangers and will feel like friends

• Confidence to reach out to the people you met after the event without feeling awkward

• Feeling like your time, money, and energy was worth it. 

Our intention for this event is to bring our communities together! So many of us are sharing our gifts or would like to, building communities and making an impact individually. Let’s come together and celebrate, connect and learn from each other. Grab a friend and let’s have fun getting to know each other for this new twist on networking!
