Back in January, we decided to launch a meetup for the event industry in NYC. There are so many planners, but it’s hard to find a simple meetup to find new connections on a regular basis. Our goal was simple – create a meaningful (and inexpensive) way to connect NYC’s event planners to one another and the resources they need to host successful events. Since January, our group has grown a little each month. We’ve tried new things and learned many lessons and now we are officially ready to launch our group! Join us tomorrow night, June 5, 2012, for the NY Events Launch Party & Summer Kick Off! We’ll be announcing the new name of the group and sharing some of the things we’re working on to better connect planners.
