Boats, Burgers, & Beer is the NMC's annual networking meeting held at the Mystic Seaport Museum in the Cladgett Boat Shed. This beautiful location where many have been married, celebrated new additions to family, and enjoyed company outings is a perfect spot for people to come together, have a great time, and learn how they may be able to work together. We loved hearing stories of connections from last year's Boats, Burgers, & Beer and look forward to hearing more from this year's larger event!

We expect to have in attendance 100 professionals from across CT, RI, and MA, as well as a member who is flying up from NC! That's a lot of conversations for you to have and a lot of folks who can see your name and hear your message. Nearly 1000 people from across the region see the invitations, announcements, and emails about the event, not including those who follow our Twitter and LinkedIn accounts.

Sponsorships can be purchased through July 14th.
