Out Pro Lounge - Philly: Networking for LGBTQ Professionals
Event Information
About this event
NEW DATE - We've rescheduled the January event to Thursday, March 3, to allow time to flatten the curve of the current outbreak of the new omicron variant. All tickets will transfer to the new date or can be used for a later date; your choice. Thanks for your support. We all look forward to an end to the pandemic.
Join us for Out Pro Lounge, the networking mixer that makes it easy and stress-free to meet and make professional connections. We've reserved both floors of the LGBTQ-owned Cockatoo in Center City, a vibrant and welcoming safe space for Philly's queer community and allies. To maximize safety and provide freedom to network, this event is only open to fully vaccinated individuals.
Bring a Friend for Free! You may add up to two complimentary guests in advance, either when you RSVP – or return later to add them to your registration.
How does our famously friendly networking mixer work?
- Color-coded industry badges help you identify and connect with people in your industry – or make it easier to identify others who might facilitate a project or fill a business need for you.
- Be sure to pocket a handful of business cards to exchange for later follow-up.
- Better yet, purchase a Dot for pick-up at the event for seamless networking at later monthly events (see below).
We'd like to thank our venue partner, the Cockatoo.
The Cockatoo is a vibrant, new safe space for Philly's queer community and allies - right in the heart of Center City. Cockatoo serves craft cocktails, wine, beer, and delicious Latin street food. Join us for Out Pro Lounge and experience this new hotspot for yourself!
