If you want to avoid wasting another minute at an ineffective, old-fashioned networking event, join the hundreds of other successful business owners, sales people, professional service firms and executives who attend "Networked Events" each month to make valuable new business connections.

This is unlike any other event Networking Event you have attended. Most regular attendees describe these events as the one event they absolutely won't miss each month. They are often described as professional cocktail parties, with a great mix of employed professionals who are not just there to grow a business card collection. You can see photos of some of our recent attendees on the right side of this page.

My name is Stephen Labuda and I started organizing these networking events two years ago with a small, hand-picked group of professionals that I liked and trusted. The goal was simply to bring together a group of professionals for a monthly networking event. Our first event had about 30 people - those 30 people invited their peers to the next event and so on...our most recent events have drawn up to 250 people with a variety of jobs in an even larger variety of industries.

I know you are probably wondering why I started organizing these events.

Take any hundred people at the start of their working careers and follow them for 40 years until the reach retirement and here is what you will find, according to the Social Security Administration: Only 1 will be wealthy; 4 will be financially secure; 5 will continue working, not because they want to but because they have to; 36 will be dead; and 54 will be dead broke - dependent on their meager Social Security checks, relatives, friends, even charity for a minimum standard of living. That's 5% successful, 95% unsuccessful.

In short, I want to be part of the successful 5% with the rest of the people who attend these events and I know that consistently developing new business relationship is one way to gaurantee my success.

This event is not a sales pitch, seminar, job fair or singles club. If you are looking for any of these things, you should not attend. If you are an employed professional, in a successful business, who relies on referrals and relationships to grow and thrive, this event is perfect for you. (NOTE: We don't allow job-seekers to attend the event and we do monitor registrations to enforce this.)

I realize you might be skeptical and wanted to share this note I received after a recent event.

I've been a BNI member and chapter president, I've held memberships in as many as 3 chambers of commerce at one time and served as an ambassador but I've never felt the 'givers gain philosophy' as strongly as I experienced when I was introduced to Networked Events. I attended a recent Networked Event in Lexington and it was the most efficient and enjoyable use of my networking time that I have experienced to date. All of the people that I met through Networked Events were people truly interested in meeting new contacts and building their network. ~ John Vaillancourt 

We want every event to be worthwhile for all of the attendees, so every event is organized by a group of volunteers we call "Hosts". The Hosts are there to help facilitate connections for you and make sure your experience is a positive one.

We charge a small fee to attend ($10) to offset the costs associated with organizing and promoting the events. We serve complimentary appetizers at the event and there is a cash bar. We often have a door prize, but not always.

Register Now

These events regularly sell out and once they are sold out, we won't accept even one additional registration. The only way to secure your spot at the event is to register now using the form at the top of the page.

I personally guarantee you will enjoy your experience. In fact, if you attend and don't find it worthwhile, you will receive a full %100 refund of every penny you paid and you will not hear from us ever again.

Sincerely,


Stephen Labuda
