Enjoy the ease of networking with many professionals in a seated, relaxed setting. When you purchase a ticket for the speed networking event you can include which industry you are in. Then, at the event, you will be able to meet people in the same and similar industries. And after the speed networking, you'll be able to network more and meet others that you did not meet during the rotations.

Check in is at 7:00 and the networking begins at 7:20. 
Please arrive at 7:00 so you have a chance to mix and mingle before the networking begins.

During our speed networking, you'll speed network for approximately one hour, meeting Ohio alumni in similar industries as you spend a few minutes speaking with each new contact. 

After the speed networking, stay for more mixing and more introductions with Ohio alumni you did not meet during the speed networking. There will be a cash bar for this event, so stay after the speed networking and meet even more Ohio alumni.
