Young Gay Professional
Networking Group Launches
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (April 9, 2007)
The Next Level -- the first Portland-area networking group specifically geared to young gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender business people -- will kick off activities at a Wednesday, May 9, meeting.
Rose City Mortgage Specialists, located at 5200 SW Macadam Ave. in Portland, will host the 5:30-6:45 p.m. meeting. Snacks and drinks will be served at this free gathering, planned for the second Wednesday of every month.
"There really is nothing else like this group around Portland," says group founder Jake Planton. "At The Next Level, people of different sexual orientations can be themselves and network with other business people."
Casual networking from 5:30-5:45 p.m. will be followed by individual introductions. A member will then present a professional topic and questions, discussion and announcements will follow.
Those planning to attend The Next Level’s first meeting should RSVP to Jake Planton at Jake@rosecitymtg.com or 503-768-4248.
