Each one hour event includes lunch and ample networking time prior to a 25-minute presentation. Local, regional, and national speakers engage us on diverse topics related to business, the regional economy, and environmental stewardship. Then a few minutes of attendee announcements close out each meeting.
A block reservation is the simplest way to participate in GBR!
When you purchase a block, there is no RSVP necessary and your block is fully transferable – so send a colleague or friend if you are unable to attend. Priority is always given to blockholders.
Not interested in committing to an entire block? No worries. You can purchase reservations for upcoming events.

Walk-Ins + Last-Minute RSVPs: If you missed the RSVP window, please reach out to us as soon as possible. We have a limited number of last-minute seats and walk-in spots, which cost $25.
