FLI Networking aims to provide a diverse range of networking events including:
Happy Hour Meetups – casual events , where, the organizers of the event rent out a portion of a bar or restaurant where everyone is welcome to have a few drinks and appetizers while they converse with other professionals. Since this is a laid-back environment, it’s a low-stakes way to get to know other professionals on a personal level.
Career fairs – Aimed at members just starting their careers. During these events, members can meet with representatives from multiple companies – allowing them to introduce themselves and ask a few questions about the company.
Speed networking – Speed networking is a way for professionals to rapidly make connections with other professionals. Like speed dating, you meet one-on-one with another professional for a set period of time. During this meeting, you can introduce yourself, ask a few questions and share contact information.
