To make it easier for everyone, every once in a while we’ll host a Zoom-only meeting instead of in-person. Don’t worry—most meetings are still in person every Wednesday at noon, but occasionally we’ll throw in a virtual one.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Question 1: Can I bring a colleague or guest?

Only registered participants are admitted. Please have your guest register through the main site.

Question 2: Can I arrive late?

We recommend arriving by 11:45 AM to ensure you’re placed in a rotation. Late arrivals may be placed in open networking only.

Question 3: What if I can’t make it?

We understand! Please contact us at (757) 607-4647 so we can offer your spot to someone on the waitlist.

Question 4: Is there a dress code?

Business casual is perfect. Look professional, but feel comfortable. Think “conference casual” – blazers, button-downs, blouses, or smart casual wear.

Question 5: Can I promote my products or services at the event?

This is a networking-first environment — we encourage sharing your business naturally through conversation. Please avoid hard selling or handing out flyers unless invited.
