Seattle Community

Event description

Join Seattle's indie business community for an inspired evening of networking at The McLeod Residence - part art gallery, part lounge, and part meeting space that is Seattle's "home for extraordinary living through art, technology, and collaboration."

This is generally the largest business networking event of the month, and a great introduction to Biznik. Everybody's friendly and casual, and the venue is packed with interesting artwork, and there's a full bar. Make sure you bring cash - they don't accept credit cards.

    Dan, I had a great time at the last McLeod get together. There must have been over 70 members there! I met many new faces. I am looking forward to seeing you again. Thank you.

    Hey I'm thrilled you joined Biznik, Ilene! See you next Thursday.

    Eric - remind me when I see you Thursday to have a conversation about Portland - I've got some ideas to run by you.

    This was my first biznik event. Great atmosphere, perfect location, ideal setting for making business connections. Reasonable drink prices too :)

    This was my first event and was very impressed. We've been in business for 15 years and been involved in a lot of networking, including several chambers of commerce. I was especially impressed that the few individuals I met, we spent a good 20 minutes talking. None of the "I'm with so and so" and "They are with so and so" and business cards exchanged. End of sentence. As I result I have upgraded my membership and look forward to being a big part of this community.

    Great meeting you last night also, Bob. In Biznik the focus is on "relationships over referrals" and "collaboration over competition." It's an approach that works really well for small business people, we've found. Plus, it's a lot more fun! Thanks for supporting Biznik - it's people like you who make everything that we're doing on the back end with the website possible, and we really appreciate it.
