LinkedIn Local San Jose – May 2018 @ Silicon Valley Capitol Club
May 10 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm

We got great feedback from our last event and are excited to announce our 3rd #LinkedInLocal San Jose! We’re trying a new venue this time around and are looking forward to seeing you all at the Silicon Valley Capital Club!

What’s special about a #LinkedInLocal Meetup?

#LinkedInLocal is a meetup concept with the purpose to meet the people behind the LinkedIn profiles. Many people connect with others on LinkedIn with the intention of meeting to explore the possibility of doing business in the future. But life often gets in the way and pretty soon that person becomes just another forgotten 1st level connection. No longer, with #LinkedInLocalSanJose.
