About this event
Join Eureka Collab as we welcome storytelling expert and journalist Megan Finnerty to learn about how we can use small talk to make something big, and how we can use meet-and-greets to inspire curiosity!
In this fast-paced, interactive session, Megan will teach you how to talk about - what you do, why you're passionate about it, and who you serve, in under 90 seconds. We will use a worksheet, and you will get a chance to talk about yourself and your business, but you won't be asked to talk about anything uncomfortable or too personal.
The workshop will start promptly at 9:15am, so please arrive before that.
There will be time to mingle & network from 10-10:30am.
