The Exchange 1016- 8 AM Meeting

WHERE GROWTH MEETS CONNECTIONS AN INDUSTRY-EXCLUSIVE CREATIVE NETWORKING AT THE STUDIO 1016 This isn’t stale networking. And it’s definitely not a room full of empty handshakes. This is a curated environment for bold thinkers, doers, and creatives who are serious about growing their business but want to do it in a way that's energizing and inspiring. Hosted at The Studio 1016 in the District, our gatherings bring together entrepreneurs, creatives, and changemakers inside a space designed to spark ideas, elevate conversations, and build powerful connections. PLUS as a perk, come to the meeting and get a complimentary access to the studio to work THE ENTIRE DAY after our event. Just bring your Eventbrite ticket. OUR VISION We cultivate an inspiring environment where entrepreneurs, creatives, and changemakers come together to learn, grow, and build meaningful relationships through engaging education and shared experiences. Our mission is to elevate both businesses and the people behind them. HOW THE EXPERIENCE FLOWS Around the Table: Every member and guest has the opportunity to share who they are and what they do, as well as exchange business cards. Member spotlight: One featured member leads a high-impact discussion tied directly to their business & expertise Roundtable dialogue: Thoughtful conversation, shared insights, and real takeaways Natural networking: Exchange ideas, energy, and business cards without forced pitches WHY ARE WE DIFFERENT: This is a place for people who refuse to settle for cookie-cutter networking. We blend: * Real education that’s relevant and actionable * Authentic connections built on trust, not transactions * Inspiring experiences that spark ideas and open doors The room is structured, but never stiff. Creative, but always purposeful. Fun, without losing focus. MEMBERSHIP & GUEST EXPERIENCE This is a membership-based group with an investment to join.
