- **Event Description**: Get ready to level up your networking game at Next Level Connect - where small business owners unite to grow and thrive!About this EventLooking for business networking that's more than exchanging business cards?Join Next Level Connect, a monthly networking event for entrepreneurs, small business owners, and professionals who come together to build relationships, learn from local experts, and support one another.Each meeting features a local business spotlight or an industry expert designed to help you make meaningful connections and grow your business.The meeting sponsor is a local business owner who will have dedicated space to showcase their business, share their products/services and have an opportunity to connect one-to-one with attendees.Participants will have time to introduce themselves — whether that’s with a polished pitch or simply sharing your name and business — so connections can continue naturally before and after the meeting.For anyone who wants to keep the conversation going, guests are invited to stay afterward for lunch at Tobacco Wood Brewing. This patronage is our thank you for allowing us to use their space. Tobacco Wood Brewing is the first female, veteran-founded brewery in North Carolina—one of only a few nationwide when they opened their doors in Oxford on September 1, 2018. With the opening of the Durham location in 2021, the taproom and restaurant has grown into a place for casual local business lunch meetings or an after work beverage and for families to come and enjoy on the evenings and weekends.No pressure — just a casual way to deepen connections, swap stories and build relationships beyond the meeting.Come as you are. Leave with clarity, confidence and connections that matter.Need coffee or tea to mingle? Visit Qamaria Coffee next door and grab a hot drink to go. Unfortunately, Tobacco Wood Brewing doesn't serve coffee.
