First Meeting of the East Side High Tech Breakfast Network Held

Some Appreciation to Get Us Started

Special thanks to Lynne Chase (Market Street Diner) and her husband Kent (Intensive Engineering) for their efforts to get this meeting off the ground.

Thanks to everyone who attended and participated in the discussion. We had 11 attendees from 8 different companies. A great start for our first session!

Finally, thanks to Market Street Diner for the coffee, juice and pastries that made it a little easier to get up in the morning.

Recap

Our first meeting was held on the morning of Thursday March 19th at Market Street Diner in Sun Prairie, Wisconsin. We had hoped that this would simply serve as a networking event that would allow participants to share information as they deemed appropriate. Truthfully, we didn't know what sort of reaction we would get to our concept. Participants quickly endorsed the idea of getting together on a regular basis, and even took it one step more and wanted us to provide some additional substance to each meeting. Based on direct input from our first attendees, we will be holding future meetings on a monthly basis--starting with the third Thursday of every month. One participating company will provide a 10 minute overview of their products and services to help familiarize the rest of us with their business. A speaker or speakers on a topic of choice by participants will be arranged for as requested by the group.

Starting next month, we'll be building a list of attendees with full contact information, so the conversations you start here can continue.

Participant Challenge

Bring a co-worker, a partner, a client, a customer, a supplier, or just someone you think would be interested in attending to the April meeting.
