Evening connectors,
You are in store for a busy August! July was all about family vacations and FIFA, but this month is business. Inside today’s newsletter, you’ll find 150+ events to choose from, which can make deciding where to spend your valuable time a little challenging. Before choosing an event, ask yourself: “What do I want to accomplish by the end of the night?” Then work backward to find the opportunities that best align with your goals this month.
This month I also have several events lined up that I will be hosting so try to come out to support! There are events for general networking, real estate industry, creatives and much more. I’m looking for vendors and sponsors for upcoming events this month, reply to this email for more information and available opportunities. Find your speed and hope to see you in real life!
~ Dre

Random Fact: Super glue was invented by accident in 1942 by Dr. Harry Coover at Eastman Kodak while he was trying to make clear plastic gun sights for Allied weapons during World War II. The chemical compound, a cyanoacrylate, stuck to everything and ruined the lab equipment, causing the team to discard it until Coover rediscovered its bonding power nine years later.
Transformation to Triumph invites you to the Triumphant Collective Incubator, a two-day virtual intensive designed for Black women who are ready to step into their next chapter with clarity, strategy, and community.
