Investment in Your Network
We've spent years building what works for event professionals. Not everyone needs the same access, though. Some folks are just starting out, others run entire operations. That's why we've structured three membership levels that match where you actually are in your career.
Why We Don't Do One-Size-Fits-All
Back in 2022, we tried a single membership tier. Everyone got everything, and honestly? It was chaos. New coordinators felt overwhelmed by executive-level strategy sessions. Senior directors didn't need beginner networking workshops. The feedback was clear.
So we rebuilt it from scratch. Talked to venue managers, production leads, freelance planners. Asked them what they'd actually use versus what sounded impressive on paper. Turns out, people want what makes sense for their specific situation—not a buffet of options they'll never touch.
Each tier reflects real conversations we've had with professionals at different career stages. Nothing theoretical here.
Choose What Fits Your Goals
All memberships run monthly. You can upgrade or downgrade anytime—we're not into locking people in. The structure below reflects what members told us they needed at each career phase.

How Membership Actually Develops
This isn't about instant transformation. Most people progress through stages over 18-24 months. Here's what that typically looks like based on member feedback.
Initial Connections
Months 1-3
You'll attend your first few meetups, feeling out the community. Most people focus on listening and learning how conversations flow in professional event circles. Expect to exchange contact details with maybe five to ten relevant connections during this phase.
Active Participation
Months 4-8
Things start clicking. You recognize familiar faces at events, join forum discussions, maybe attend your first workshop. Some members land their first collaboration opportunity here—nothing huge, usually an assistant role on someone else's project. That's normal and valuable.
Relationship Building
Months 9-15
Your network becomes genuinely useful. People start referring opportunities your way because they know what you do well. You might upgrade tiers here as your needs shift. Several members told us they found their current business partners during this middle phase.
Established Presence
Months 16-24
You're contributing as much as you're receiving. Maybe you're mentoring newer members or leading a roundtable discussion. Your professional reputation within the network is solid, and opportunities come to you without much active seeking. This is where membership pays for itself several times over.
What Makes This Worth It
Real Industry Access
We're not talking about generic business networking. Every person here works in events—production, planning, venue management, technical services. Your conversations are immediately relevant and often lead somewhere tangible.
Time That Doesn't Get Wasted
Members tell us they appreciate that we screen people during signup. Nobody's trying to sell you insurance or recruit you into some scheme. Everyone's here for legitimate professional advancement in event industries.
Practical Knowledge Exchange
The case studies and workshops focus on actual challenges—difficult clients, budget constraints, last-minute vendor issues. You'll get solutions from people who've handled the same situations, not textbook theory from someone who's never run an event.
"I joined as a junior coordinator in early 2024. Within seven months, I'd connected with a production manager who needed help on a festival contract. That project led to three more. The membership fee became irrelevant compared to what those connections generated."
