Connex

Stay connected through this special online edition of Connex! We’re virtually bringing together colleagues, friends, entrepreneurs and creative professionals. We’ll start with group speed networking, then connect with fellow marketers to talk over hot marketing topics in small groups.

This event falls on Veterans Day. At 8:30, we’ll have a 30-second moment of silence and coffee toast to all those who have served.

Round Robin Discussion Groups

The virtual event will feature the small group breakouts we have had at live Connex.  Attendees will be divided into three Zoom breakout rooms, each hosted by a topic expert. Every 20 minutes, you’ll rotate rooms to hear from a new expert and meet new peers. By the end of the night, you’ll have been in a breakout group led by each of the three experts.

Please note that, to enhance your experience, all participants must use a computer and headphones for this Zoom meeting. We will not offer a dial-in (phone only) option for this event. Thank you!
