Chocolate blues and business networking festival - Pittsburgh, PA - May 2, 2013

The Chocolate Blues and Business Festival is not your typical business event. Chocolate Blues is one of the largest, most productive and fun business events in the country. Currently, we are in over 50 U.S. Cities and we're very excited to be coming to Pittsburgh.

Chocolate Blues and Business Networking Festival is being held May 2, 2013 at Epiphany Church McDowell Hall 164 Washington Place, Pittsburgh, PA 15219. The event will be open from 1pm to 7pm (come & go).

We bring like-minded business owners and professionals together for a day of powerful connecting. Typically, our attendance is 500-700, sometimes a little less and often times

much more. We have had as many as 2,730 professionals attend a single networking event!

The event features chocolate treats, blues/Jazz music, a business expo with vendors

showcasing their products and services, open networking, a giant business card exchange, networking games, an appointment setting station, an ice-breaker networking game, door prizes and solid business connections.

There will be a collection basket set up to receive broken (in pieces is okay), damaged and old cell phones for Pittsburgh's battered and abused women's shelter). Donated phones that can be repaired will be donated and those that cannot be repaired will be recycled along with all monies from the recycling being donated to the Shelters. These cell phones will help women feel more secure and give them the ability to call 911 when and if another emergency arises. This endeavor shows that local business owners of all sizes do care about not only their businesses but their community; you couldn't ask for a better example of this.
