Network On A Cruise?
At Legal Tech NY, I had the pleasure of meeting with Mark Rayner, the owner of Richmond Events. In association with American Lawyer Media Events, Mark's company organizes executive networking events on cruise ships.
So, for example, Richmond Events will rent out a cruise ship for 3 days. It goes only a few miles off the coast of New York City. On board there are three separate networking conferences for different industries. The one that I'm looking into is the Corporate Counsel Forum. Basically, about 100 General Counsel or Associate Counsel (our key target buyers) from US corporations will be on board. Vendors, such as my company, will pay a hefty sum to set up dedicated meetings with the general counsels. In addition to the set meetings, there are also meal time networking and other social networking events.
Please email me if you have any experience with this type of executive level networking events, or experience with other conferences organized by Richmond Events. I would love to hear your thoughts. Thanks!
