More than 90 businesses will converge at Rhodes on the Pawtuxet in Cranston next Tuesday night for the Rhode Island Chambers of Commerce Business After Hours event, meant to connect businesses and organizations across Rhode Island.
“The main goal of the event is networking,” Central Rhode Island Chamber of Commerce President Lauren Slocum said. The Central Rhode Island Chamber is hosting the event. “Whether you’re looking to do business with another company there, whether it’s purchasing new services and products, or looking to establish new relationships with other companies.”
The nearly 100 organizations that will have tables set up during the event, which will run from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, March 27, include BankRI, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Healthsource, the Pawtucket Red Sox, and Warwick Tourism, Culture & Development.
The event is free and open to the public and there will be a cash bar as well as food from Russell Moore and Fine catering.
Slocum said that there will be some companies there who are hiring employees, but the purpose of the evening is not to find a job. She added that instead of an interview setting, the atmosphere of the event allows people to learn more about companies and help them to better identify what these organizations do.
“It’s really three hours of getting to know each other,” she said.
Some of the other types of companies that will be there are credit unions, realtors, photography and entertainment enterprises, technology/security companies, restaurants, including Iron Works Tavern, hotels, and health care companies.
