Networking

Downtown Como is the host of two monthly networking groups that are designed to connect local networkers, entrepreneurs, and business owners to the people in our community.

Networking can sometimes seem like a chore. However our events are made with our members in mind. Instead of delegating time for trainings, competitions, guest speakers, and extra outside duties, we flip the script and give all the time to our members and guest so that they can mingle and converse freely amongst one another. Half-way through our presenters or sponsors will spend 3 to 5 minutes to introduce themselves let the group know what’s new or what’s going on with their company.

The second Tuesday of every month Local Leaders will be held at the Pressed in Downtown Columbia, MO. Local Leaders, formally known as Executive Connections Group is a diverse group of local leaders, business owners, and entrepreneurs that gather each month to stay connected with each other and the local economy, hear from local presenting brands, and collaborate as local advocates for each other.

The last Wednesday of every month B.Y.O.Brush {bring your own brush} is a rotating location networking group that brings together the local community with local artist. This event is open to the local public to attend so they can gather around local artist and watch them paint live, have a drink, buy art, and meet other locals that have a taste for the Arts.
