Step into an evening designed for business owners who want more than surface-level networking. Join our Private Dinner, where Charlotte’s entrepreneurs gather to share real stories, build authentic relationships, and uncover opportunities to grow together.

This experience is about meaningful conversations, collaboration, and connections that drive real results. Over a great meal, you’ll be surrounded by passionate entrepreneurs who are serious about scaling their businesses.

This time, we’re excited to welcome a sales expert Jill Pedersen. With over 20 years of experience in sales, Jill has worked across 6 countries, 3 continents, and in multiple languages, helping companies build intentional sales strategies that drive predictable growth. She’s on a mission to help growth-minded businesses with $10M+ in revenue and 5+ salespeople develop high-impact sales systems that scale.

Join us to gain practical insights and strategies on building a sales foundation that actually works, and walk away with actionable takeaways you can apply to your business immediately.
