Face-to-face networking is slowly making a come-back and that includes the Small Business Expo. This is a popular event that takes place in first and second tier cities around the country. The event does a nice job of presenting exhibitor opportunities, educational sessions and most importantly a chance to network.

One of the typical features of the expo is their speed networking sessions where business people can quickly learn a little about one another and then decide whether to follow-up to interact more.

During the lock-down  SBE did a good job of keeping their events going with online sessions. I attended a number of them and made several good new contacts.

Here is a video from SBE founder & CEO, Zachary Lezberg, sharing useful and insightful networking ideas.
