SUMMARY:Founders & Friends: A CED x PMIL Construction Happy Hour
DESCRIPTION:The year is almost over\, and you’ve earned a drink with people who get it. \nJoin CED and PMIL Construction for a relaxed evening of connecting with fellow founders\, entrepreneurs\, and the professionals who help businesses grow. Whether you’re just getting started\, scaling fast\, or simply looking to expand your network before the new year\, this is your chance to meet new people\, reconnect with familiar faces\, and swap stories about the highs and lows of building something. \nWe’ll kick things off with a quick chat with a founder who took on one of the least glamorous parts of growing a company: building out their own space. (Yes\, we’ll talk leases and permits. No\, it won’t take long. We promise it’s more entertaining than it sounds.) Then it’s all about the people in the room.No agenda\, no slides\, just good drinks\, good company\, and connections worth making. Bring a friend\, bring your business cards\, and come ready to meet someone new.
