Summarized from the organizer's page.

Getting there

How to prepare

A short plan for this networking event, based on its format, audience and details.

Before the event

  • Prepare a 20-second introduction: what you do, what you are good at and what you would like to do next.
  • Set a simple goal, such as three real conversations, so the evening has a purpose without feeling forced.
  • Check how to get to Waterloo Brewing Taphouse, where to park and how long the trip takes, so you arrive calm.
  • Look up the organizer and any hosts or speakers, and note one or two people you would like to meet.

At the event

  • Arrive early, while groups are small and it is easier to join a conversation.
  • Ask people about their work before you mention your own search. Good questions lead to better conversations.
  • Look for groups of three or more with room in the circle. They are easier to join than two people deep in conversation.

What to bring

  • Business cards From the organizer
  • A few business cards, or a digital card or LinkedIn QR code ready on your phone.
  • A charged phone with your LinkedIn profile or portfolio ready to show.
  • A pen and a small notebook, or notes on your phone, to record names and next steps.

After the event

  • Connect on LinkedIn within two days, with a note that says where you met and what you talked about.
  • Follow up on anything you offered, such as an article or an introduction, within the week.
  • Add each new contact to a simple list with the date and what you discussed, so you can check in again in a month or two.
  • Look for the next networking event in Kitchener and go back. People remember the faces they see more than once.
