Liz’s Comments: I’ve gone to 7 of these and lots of people from all different interests come through out the night. Always packed with people. I’ll be at this one!
From the Organizers:
These events are very simple and unstructured, but many people have found employment, made friends, developed new ideas, done deals and had moments of serendipity.
Be sure to bring your friends and colleagues to have a couple of drinks with green folks like you ― environmentalists, journalists, academics, elected officials, green builders, green business folks, health care professionals, doctors, chemists, market professionals, developers, artists, engineers, students, program managers, and just about anyone else who is interested in a better GTA, a better Canada and a better world. Green Drinks is a social activity, so come enjoy a during‐the‐week drink with some really caring and talented people in Toronto.
Come join Toronto’s fastest growing environmental networking group.
We have a lively mixture of people from NGOs, academia, students, government and business . Come along and you’ll be made welcome. Just say, “are you green?” and we will look after you and introduce you to whoever is there. It’s a great way of catching up with people you know and also for making new contacts. Everyone invites someone else along, so there’s always a different crowd, making Green Drinks an organic, self-organising network.
