Our Bay Area events are as diverse as the people who attend them. We spent years attending networking events that were generic and not suited to our interests. So, we decided to make networking more fun and effective for you, the Professional. We take time to select the best and most beautiful locations to bring together professionals from a variety of industries and career stages, including high-tech startups, fashion, small business, restaurants, law and young professionals, just to name a few. When you come to one of our events, you’ll meet people with new and innovative ideas that will inspire you.
Make connections, share stories and learn new things from professionals throughout San Francisco, the East Bay and South Bay areas. After all, sometimes it only takes one conversation to change everything.
715 Harrison is located in the heart of San Francisco’s SOMA district, only a few blocks away from Moscone Convention Center, and the San Francisco Fancy Food Show. This amazing venue has 15,000 square feet, multiple rooms, two dance floors, and three full bars. Enjoy drinks at the bar while networking with Bay Area tech professionals!

Event Marketing
In this interactive workshop we will review a comprehensive strategy for taking your organization to the next level. Business owners are overwhelmed and distracted with day to day activities and tasks. Owners need to make important decisions, quickly, with greater consequences, and often with limited information on hand. Owners concentrate on the tactical decisions and often neglect the strategic ones. This session will provide real world examples and techniques for leveraging existing resources and a systematic approach for managing your upcoming events.
Plan
Professionally promote your event. Set up an ad-free event homepage, collect registration fees with secure payment processing, and keep registration open for attendees to register online at their convenience.
Track
Reduce repetitive tasks. Reduce the number of day-to-day “to-dos” with online event registration, reminders, invitations, a calendar, and event themes. Do more…but in minutes by managing all your promotions, registrations, and communications in one place.
Manage
Monitor and course-correct. Save money by taking the guesswork out of capturing attendance information. Use event tracking and reporting tools to plan for exact catering needs, room size, parking space…you name it!
and more…
