Don't miss this opportunity for structured networking, where you'll be assigned to a table and each person will take a turn speaking about his or her products or services. Then you'll rotate to another table and do it twice more, meeting three tables full of prospective new customers or clients.The advantage to this type of networking is that you have the undivided attention of the group at your table. Instead of informally mingling with just a few familiar faces, you will experience a very focused networking scenario. Come prepared to talk about what you do and bring plenty of business cards. Please note that in order to ensure optimal networking for all attendees, no more than two individuals from the same company may attend each breakfast.
