Do you find networking events stuffy, salesy, or just... kind of awkward?
You’re not alone, and we’re here to change that.
Whether you're new to the area, a seasoned business owner, or just looking to meet ambitious, like-minded professionals in a more fun and natural way, this event is for you.
Charlotte Networking Knowledge and Lake Norman Business Nexus believe networking should feel like hanging out with friends, not forcing small talk or collecting business cards you’ll never look at again. That’s why we’re teaming up to bring you something totally different…
🔥 Lake Norman’s First-Ever Hot Wing Competition + Networking Mixer 🔥
This is more than just another meet-and-greet. It’s an afternoon full of good vibes, bold flavors, and real conversations. Here’s what to expect:
✅ Hot Wing Challenge – We’re bringing the heat… literally! Try a variety of spicy sauces, or just watch the brave souls compete. All wings are ordered plain, and we bring the sauce. You choose your heat level.
➡️ Special Bonus: Business owners who participate in the competition will receive a 1-minute spotlight to introduce their business to the entire group! It’s a great chance to gain visibility and have some fun doing it. The catch, you have to do it after taking a bite of the hottest wing!
✅ Casual Networking Vibes – Meet professionals, entrepreneurs, and business owners in a laid-back, no-pressure environment. No awkward intros. Just genuine conversations.
✅ Open Mingling & Connection Games – We'll mix in a few fun activities to help you connect beyond “what do you do?”
✅ Amazing Food & Drinks – Attendees are responsible for their own tabs, but the menu (and wings!) won’t disappoint. 🍻
✅ Learn More & Get Involved – Discover more about our groups and how you can become an active member of our thriving communities.
