Coffee with the Chamber-Speed Networking with John Brennan

Description

Speed Networking at Coffee with the Chamber

We have a special edition of Coffee with the Chamber featuring Speed Networking, facilitated by John Brennan, a veteran networking facilitator who has led structured networking experiences for chambers of commerce and business organizations throughout New Jersey.

Unlike traditional networking events, where you may leave having met only a handful of people, this format is designed to help you connect with every attendee in the room through organized, timed conversations.

Important:

Attendance is limited to 30 participants

Walk-ins cannot be accommodated

The event will begin promptly to ensure all attendees receive full value from the experience

Registration is required in advance

What to Expect:

8:15 AM – 8:30 AM | Registration & Check-In
Pick up your name badge, coffee, and networking materials.

8:30 AM – 8:45 AM | Open Networking
Enjoy 15 minutes of informal conversation before the structured program begins.

8:45 AM – 8:50 AM | Welcome & Chamber Updates
Angela Kubisky, Executive Director, will provide brief Chamber announcements and upcoming opportunities.

8:50 AM – 9:00 AM | Introduction to Speed Networking
John Brennan will explain how the format works, expectations for participants, and tips to maximize the value of each interaction.

9:00 AM – 10:00 AM | Structured Speed Networking Sessions Begin
Participants will rotate through a series of timed introductions designed to maximize connections and meaningful conversation.

You’ll have the opportunity to meet every attendee in the room.

Exclusive Networking Booklet Included

Each attendee will receive a professionally printed networking booklet, generously produced by Chamber member Ken Tays of Minuteman Press.

The booklet will include one full page dedicated to each participant, featuring:

• Name
• Company
• Title (if provided)
• Email address
• Phone number

The purpose of the booklet is simple: take notes during your conversations.

When you follow up after the event, you’ll have meaningful reminders about your discussions, making it easier to continue relationships and turn introductions into opportunities.

Why Attend?

Expect a fast-paced, highly organized experience focused on relationship-building, referrals, and intentional network expansion.

Register early — once 30 spots are filled, registration will close.
