NCET's WifFi Wednesday August 22, 2007

Forget the polite small-talk, suits and the “good ‘ole boys”
smoke-filled back room deals… today’s young professionals, entrepreneurs and techies are shunning staid, old fashioned networking events for high-octane power events at local hot spots.

On August 22, join NCET and the Reno-Tahoe Young Professional’s Network (YPN) as they put a modern-day spin on Greater Reno Tahoe’s networking with the launch of Wi-Fi Wednesdays: “Connecting the Connected.”

- Wi-Fi Wednesdays is a bi-monthly high-energy networking opportunity designed exclusively for the influential 21-39 demographic
- Held in wireless venues throughout Reno
- Entertaining high-tech networking tools
- “Speed networking,” a twist on the “speed dating” concept that helps facilitate numerous one-on-one introductions in a short period of time
- Brief presentations by successful young entrepreneurs and technology professionals.
