Event Description

Financial Speed Networking is designed to create intentional, one-on-one connections between small business owners and professionals in the finance industry.

During this structured experience, attendees will engage in a series of 15-minute consultations with bankers, lenders, insurance experts, and financial service providers. The goal is to:

  • Make meaningful connections
  • Share information about your business
  • Explore funding and financial service opportunities
  • Identify solutions to support business growth
  • Increase visibility within the financial sector

This format allows participants to meet multiple professionals in a short amount of time — maximizing access, efficiency, and opportunity.
