We Gather to Grow

Gathering (def): an assembly or meeting held for a specific purpose.

Members and guests discuss business issues and hurdles in small groups, which helps to develop a bond. This leads to trust and, eventually, the exchange of business opportunities.

You might say we cracked the code on “networking”.

Three chapters, every month.

Meet the Founder

Davis Conway lives in Charlotte, NC and has been going to networking events for almost a decade. Over that time he found that most groups and events weren’t structured as well as they could be. Either too casual or too formal. There needed to be a happy medium that allowed for relationships to foster. FWB is Davis’ outlet for his true passion of connecting people to impactful opportunities. He hopes you’ll come see the difference for yourself!
