Learn more about how to participate below.

At OutPro, making new contacts and furthering connections with people you know is easy and enjoyable.

• Our events are full of people eager to meet other LGBTQ professionals. The usual barriers are lifted, making everyone more approachable.
• Color-coded badges help you identify people in your industry or ones where you have a need.
• Be sure to pocket a handful of business cards to exchange for later follow-up.
• Better yet, log in and use LinkedIn on your mobile to share your information digitally with people you meet.

Wings Wine - Founded by Matilda Hay, a wine expert and former champagne consultant who set out to create something truly her own: a wine brand that celebrates authenticity and queer joy all year round. Wings Wine was born from the desire to represent the LGBTQ+ community beyond just Pride Month. More than just wine, Wings is about embracing who we are and creating spaces where everyone feels seen, valued, and welcome.

Wings Wine is here to toast authenticity, love, and belonging, every single day, cheers!
