Business Book Group
Network with others at our Business Book Group discussions every eight weeks. Each session is focused around a non-fiction book that is specifically chosen to help you succeed in your business aspirations. Prior reading of the books is not necessary to attend the discussion. After the discussion, attendees network over beer and light refreshments. Check event listings for the next meeting.
The Business Book Group is sponsored by DR Bank.
