Welcome to Charlotte SPARK SESSIONS: a meetup for authentic individuals who are seeking a new way to network. We're a group of locals and leaders who have a passion for lifelong learning and are looking for a group to "spark" new ideas, new connections, and new collaborations.
Consider joining us if you identify with these five core philosophies:
S = Sincerity over Sales
P = People over Profits
A = Authenticity over Agendas
R = Relationships over Ratings
K = Kindness over Quotas
We are an inclusive group of both new and experienced business owners and successful professionals who recognize that relationships are our most precious possession (and what ultimately make life worth living.) Together, we are charting a course for a new way to network for the purpose of co-creating both personal and professional success. Our ultimate goal is sparking those inspiring “magic human moments” through meaningful human connections.
***********************
Tired of the “me first” networking scene? Seeking something authentic, engaging and collaborative (instead of cut-throat competitive?)
We know how you feel and we'd like to invite you to join us for one of our monthly meetups at Charlotte SPARK Sessions where you can grow your personal and professional circle with like-minded people who value "Real Connections" over "Shallow Contacts."
Initially, Charlotte SPARK Sessions met twice a month according to this schedule:
- 1st Thurs Happy Hour Meetup (5p-7p) and
- 3rd Thurs Brunch-n-Learn (9a-10:30a) or Lunch-n-Learn (12noon-1:30p) Monthly
The Happy Hour events were always 100% free and drop ins were always welcome, but there was a small fee to cover the costs of food, room and running this group for the third-Thursday meetups that featured a speaker ($11 in advance and $15 at the door for the "Brunch-n-Learn" and $21 in advance and $25 at the door for the "Lunch-n-Learn meetings).
All that was in the "before times" . . . before a pandemic descended upon our tiny planet and made gathering in person a problem.
Now we host "ad hoc" meetings (sometimes online and sometimes in person) and invite you to keep connecting (authentically) as we believe that "COMMUNITY Builds CAPACITY" (and we are better TOGETHER!)
