Business Networking Series
Background
This networking series was an outgrowth of Solano Business Connections. The idea was to break down the one large scale event into three or four mixers during the course of the year. Four to six Chambers of Commerce participate in each event with typical attendance of 150 to 250 participants. The mixer locations rotate between Vacaville, Fairfield and Vallejo. The target audiences are local businesses and large corporations willing to provide the main sponsorships. Each Chamber of Commerce that participated in the original Solano Business Connections continues today. The joint mixers in this series are typically one of most well-attended networking events in Fairfield, Vacaville and Vallejo.
Creating the Primary Business Outreach for Solano College
The popularity of these mixers is driven with extra time and investments in decor, food, and occasional live entertainment. These features also enhance the image of the college and sponsors. For example, white tablecloths cover cocktails and bistro tables, and high-quality beverages are served, such as local Suisun Valley wines, and beer on tap from local breweries. Sponsors are given extra recognition with signs on each table and a large sponsor banner at the stage or podium.
Let us help you plan an outreach event for your company! Mr. Johnston was a Chamber Ambassador with the Fairfield-Suisun and Vallejo Chambers, and over the years was a Rotary Club member in Vacaville, Vallejo and Fairfield-Suisun. West Wind Music is Chamber member in these communities as well as American Canyon which helps create great connections.
