Speed Networking

Our next Mixer Match event will be in Spring 2012. Stay tuned!

I Heart Art: Mixer Match at Design Within Reach

Q: What happens at the intersection of speed-dating and sales networking?

A: Speed Networking—a whirlwind night of rapid-fire elevator pitches and electrified business connections!

Forty handmade artists have a mere two minutes to pitch their product to each of 20 local and regional buyers in an atmosphere a-buzz with energy and excitement. Professional advisors and crafty superstars will be on hand to give tips about line sheets, portfolios, pitching to blogs and more. Design Within Reach’s Portland Studio hosts this third round of Mixer Match, suitable for handmade artists seeking new wholesale and consignment accounts.

    • Hi Nancy, thanks for your interest! Unfortunately, the deadline for application for this event was April 25, as stated above. Applications have already been processed and participants chosen.

      However, part of the program includes a casual networking environment on the first floor of the space, where participants, invited “superstars” and other arts professionals will have an opportunity to meet and greet and make connections. This portion is open to the public, so please feel free to swing by and participate.

      Otherwise, sign up for our mailing list to stay up-to-date on new opportunities and other programs in the future.
