The Delaware Small Business Chamber invites you to a unique and engaging networking event - the 60-Second Networking. 
Prepare for an exciting opportunity to connect with fellow small business owners in multiple ways. This event, inspired by the concept of speed dating, allows you to rotate through various pairs, giving each participant 60 seconds to present their "elevator pitch." By the end of the event, you'll have interacted with up to 23 other passionate and driven business professionals.

But that's not all! This event is designed to provide an enriching experience from start to finish. Join us between 8:30 and 8:45 am to kick-start the networking session with some delicious breakfast goodies and beverages. This will allow you to mingle and establish connections before the program begins promptly at 9:00 am.  You will have time afterward to continue your networking with specific attendees.  

To ensure a diverse and dynamic networking environment, we are limiting participation to a maximum of two individuals from the same category. Don't miss out – sign up online today to secure your spot!
