Over the course of an evening we’ll bring together a diversified group of people who are all rockstars in their perspective fields and all within a couple of degrees of each other. The idea is doing more than just getting to know each other\, but seeing how we can help and support each other. The cost of admission includes beer\, wine and food to go along with the evening.  Here'\;s how it works: You tell us an opportunity you need filled\, for example: Does anyone know anyone who is a great Wordpress designer? Does anyone know anyone with any contacts in Prague? Does anyone know anyone who is an amazing literary agent? Does anyone know of anyone in PR looking to give advice to an up and coming musician on how to best market their product? Does anyone have any experience with starting real estate development\, or know anyone that does? Does anyone know anyone who runs an effective remote team / works while traveling? Does anyone know anyone who has experience moving to a foreign country without being fluent in the language? It can be anything! Once at the event\, your question will be up on the board and have a number associated with it: (1\, 2\, 3\, etc). You’ll have a name tag with the number of your question. Everyone’s task will be to look at the board of opportunities and select at least 3 people you’d like to help\, in whatever capacity. You write your number next to the opportunities you want to fill. As the board gets populated with offers to help\, you have to find the people you want to help and connect with them. At the same time people will be looking for you\, offering connections and support.  Our ability to simultaneously pursue our own goals while being mindful and supportive of other people’s goals is fundamental to human life - so fundamental\, in fact that we have trouble turning it off. - Clay Shirky We will send our more details once we have the group of 30. Invite anyone you think might be interested. Spots will fill fast! We will max out at 30 people. Magnetically Yours\, Bassam Tarazi &\; Jason Wisdom Magnet. It'\;s where parallels attract.  \n When: Thursday\, May 3\, 2012 from 8:00 PM to 10:30 PM\n Where: 419 Park Avenue South\, New York\, United States\n Attendees: 2 http://plancast.com/p/b1lm URL:http://plancast.com/p/b1lm CATEGORIES:Networking,Entertainment,Social LOCATION:419 Park Avenue South\, New York DTSTAMP:20120420T011843Z END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
