Additional silent auction items are welcomed. All items are eligible; contributors can display signs and literature about their business alongside the donation.

A charity recipient for raffle proceeds will be chosen at random during the event. Attendees can submit their favorite organization to be included in the drawing.

The BIG Networking anniversary party is open to everyone. Attendees are asked to RSVP at www.bignetworking.org. Seating is limited for Neuberger’s presentation.

BIG Networking was founded in 2008 by Deb Hoffmann, co-owner of TechAnalysts Inc., which specializes in custom software, apps, web site development and online marketing. Unlike some other networking organizations, BIG has no ongoing cost for members (except for lunches at meetings) beyond a one-time $25 joining fee.
