What is Speed Networking?
Speed networking is a type of business networking activity that is designed to give each individual participant contact with as many people as possible in a short space of time.
A speed event is structured in such a way that participants introduce themselves to others in an allocated period of time (1-2 minutes) before moving on to the next person. The idea is that basic information about you and each other participants is exchanged gained rather than having an in-depth discussion. Ticket includes light food. Cash Bar.
Practice Your Elevator Pitch
With each group, you will have 60 seconds to effectively introduce yourself. Be sure to give enough information to pique the interest of potential partners, clients, mentors and friends! Important information to include: who you are, your company, role, what your company does, your goals, who you would like to work with and/or who you would like to work with.
Exchange business cards
You have limited time so at least ensure that you exchange business cards so you can contact them at a later date. Remember your business cards and bring enough cards. This event previously had 180 attendees. Each attendee networked with at least 30 individuals.
Make Follow Up Easy
Make any notes on business cards collected so you will be reminded after the event you of who you have met and what action is required. Following the event create a standard email that you can make small personalized tweaks to (as needed). Follow up via email and also be sure to add your fellow participants on LinkedIn. Follow the Hispanic Chamber Facebook and LinkedIn pages to see photos and who is tagged in them following the event.
