SDTH Monthly Meeting: Business Networking Pickup Lines

There will be NO NAPPING during this workshop where everyone will stand up, talk, move around, and learn how to be a professional business “flirt.” We challenge the extroverted and the most introverted to come to this session and learn how to make in-person cold connections, find *the* person in the room you need to talk to, and qualify a person for a potential business relationship.

David Spark (@dspark) is the founder and executive producer of the CISO Series, a media network for cybersecurity professionals. He also co-hosts many of our shows. Spark is a veteran tech journalist that’s appeared in many media outlets such as eWEEK, Wired News, Forbes, PCWorld, Clearchannel, and TechTV (formerly ZDTV). Spark is the author of "Three Feet from Seven Figures: One-on-One Engagement Techniques to Qualify More Leads at Trade Shows." Outside of tech, security, and marketing, Spark squandered more than a dozen years working as a touring stand-up comedian, a San Francisco tour guide, and a comedy writer for The Second City in Chicago.
