In the very beginning, Industry Link pulled in 20 attendees. Now, the company has quickly grown to have hundreds of people at its events. Along with the mixers being free of charge, the team credits the positive energy and actual connection that’s present at the events for why the concept has been a success.
“What we see that’s different from other networking events is that we provide a good vibe,” Adesokan said. “People actually come to network. You see other networking events where people don’t really get the opportunity to network. People do get the opportunity to network at ours.”
She continued, “And we have a lot of testimonials on that. I’ve gotten multiple LinkedIn messages like, ‘Hey, thank you so much for this. I got to meet someone who works at XYZ company.’ And I think the repetition of people just having multiple good things to say about us just brings in other people.”
