Networking & Social Events

EWN also provides opportunities to socialize and network, with:

Grand Networking Event (GNE), held in late May/June, features a prominent speaker and the EWN Entrepreneur of the Year Award.

Business Expos, held in the Spring and before the Holiday season, were both sold out in 2009.  Last year's March Expo showcased over 55 EWN member businesses and boosted over 300 attendees.

After Hours Networking, held three times a year, offers an informal way to make new connections with colleagues and deepen current ones.
