Event description

Join Seattle's small business community for an inspired evening of networking hosted by Biznik Co-founders, Dan and Lara.

Bring a bottle of wine or a beverage to share - this will be a recession-friendly BYOB event at Fremont Studios - Seattle's largest film production studio in the heart of Fremont - where Biznik held the Green Carpet Oscar Bash in January. Fremont Studios is owned by Biznik Member, Scott Jonas.

This monthly event is generally the largest Biznik business networking event of the month, and a great introduction to Biznik.

Parking & Food Street parking is ample and free, and there are dozens of local restaurants in the heart of Fremont, within two blocks of Fremont Studios. Arrive early or late.

    It will be great reconnecting with the familiar faces and meeting so many new ones!

    Thanks Dan and Lara for putting this on.

    Hi Lara, Dan and Everyone

    I'm a maybe. Will you be having future Happy Hours at Fremont Studios? I really enjoyed the Oscar Bash there! I'll see how far I get in doing my taxes before Apr. 15th D-Day! I don't want to do the extension.

    Aside from the Oscar party that included dinner, this will be Biznik's first BYOB Happy Hour at Fremont Studios. If all goes well, we'll certainly do it here again!

    This sounds very exciting and thrilling. Wish I could go, but I'm in the middle of teaching a course on Tuesday nights! Perhaps you will hold such a cool event on some future Fri, Sat, or Sun. :)

    Just watched the vimeo video "I'm a Biznik". It's great to see people I know (Piper Lauri Salogga)and new faces describing the REAL reason we love and co-create with Biznik. It's what I descibe every week to other business owners. What fun. See you all tomorrow night.

    India, The May 6 event will go until about 10pm, possibly later depending on how much fun we're having. Tonight's event will likely wrap up as advertised by 8pm.

    We'll miss you Peter. But everybody will get to meet you on the home page of Biznik shortly when we release the video which you helped us make. Thank again for driving all the way over to Seattle to help us out with that.

    But you WILL miss the big announcement we're going to be making this evening. Sorry!

    Yay! I finally get to make it out to an event and see all the great Peeps! Wherever will you fit us all? I imagine it will be cozy. Looking forward to hearing the 'big announcement...!'

  • Dan McComb
    Posted by Dan McComb, Seattle, Washington | Apr 07, 2009

    Um, the venue holds 3,000. So I think we'll be fine.

    In case you're on the fence about dashing out for the next 45 minutes of this event, I say, "Go."

    Just got home from there, where we had a great time. Bet you will, too.

    Great event everyone. As promised, here's the link to the epic event we're planning on May 6. SHINE: Tell us your story.

    Had a great time, and getting to roam through Freemont Studios was great! Met some really interesting people. My only suggestion is to maybe throw in one or two structured events to get people to meet others who they might not think to talk to. But the overall free-for-all atmosphere should stay dominant. How about a big display screen with people's names, photos, and what they are seeking that night?

  • Sara Eizen
    Posted by Sara Eizen, Seattle, Washington | Apr 08, 2009

    the I'm a Biznik video is AWESOME!!! Ben did an incredible job and Piper, Debbie and Cammy are perfect at describing Biznik.

    can't wait for the Shine movie!!!!

    Last nights event was so fun! Love the space -- it's going to be perfect for SHINE. Bizniks "rock." (LOL).

    Terrific venue for a Biznik event. We're so lucky to have access to Fremont Studios. The announcement by Dan of the SHINE movie was a defining moment of my connection with Biznik. Wonderful inspiration!

    Once again, a great marketing event. It is wonderful to have a big space where we can have large mixers.

    Great event! I love these, and glad you brought back the 'monthly happy hour'. Great idea to make it 'recession friendly' too : )
