What we’re about
GVL Connect is a series of networking events hosted by Joanna Reese, founder of Tangible Agency and Carolina Pride Realty. The primary goal is to help small businesses connect with each other and the community.
Our networking events feature food, drinks, networking, and a 10-minute educational talk by a local professional.
Our core strength lies in the group's ability to leverage our combined resources and relationships to empower small business owners and grow our state's economy. Do you have the next great idea and want to discuss it with someone else?
For more information about attending these events, speaking at a GVL Connect, or about sponsoring the food/drinks, please contact Joanna Reese (JoannaReese@kw.com).
