Partner with The C Squared Group

As a member of the C Squared Group community (http://www.csquaredgroup.com/) we’d like you to have a first look at some opportunities to get involved.

On a regular basis, we are highlighting these opportunities in the hope that we can work more closely with some of you.

Please let us know if it is beneficial for you (or your firm) to work alongside us in the following capacities:

Midtown Conference / Meeting Room Space for Morning Events:
We are looking for a number of midtown based firms to partner with us in hosting morning networking events. Our Contacts and Coffee series can either be:
  • Content Based: These are generally panel discussions and other morning content events for a variety of different industries. These range from 20-50 people and are carefully designed to integrate both content and networking into a session before the start of the work day.
  • Unstructured Networking: Free form networking over coffee before the start of the regular work day. These events typically draw 40+ established professionals.
Sponsoring firms that partner with us will receive:
  • Prominent placement of logos on our invites – These reach well in excess of 50,000 New Yorkers directly
  • Mention as a title sponsor for the event
  • Ability to have promotional materials and representatives at the event
  • Preference for inclusion on panels (if expertise is relevant)
Please contact Jordan (jordan@csquaredgroup.com) with any ideas you may have.

Host Committee/Brand Ambassadors:
We are actively looking for approximately 8 Host Committee/Brand Ambassadors for each of our industry events. Please email us at info@csquaredgroup.com answering the following questions if this is of interest:
  1. Can you tell us about your company / practice? What is your role?
  2. Have you been to a C Squared Group event before? Do you regularly attend networking events produced by any other group?
  3. Do you have any concrete thoughts on how we increase visibility for our industry events (in particular, the events relevant to your industry)?
  4. Would you be able to assist with forming a marketing and content strategy for your specific industry?
Sponsorship Sales:
Do you have relationships with sponsors that might have an interest in reaching a large (and rapidly growing) community of professionals? If so, we would love to hear from you. Please contact us at sales@csquaredgroup.com to discuss ways that we can collaborate.

Venues:
Our venue needs continue to grow with our roster of monthly events. We prefer to stay in midtown although we are happy to travel for the right venue. Please don’t hesitate to contact us with any venue ideas you may have at venues@csquaredgroup.com.

Technology Development Work:
Although we handle all of our design (and most of our technology) in house, we do have some simple custom technology work that we need done. We would like to barter exposure and sponsorship to defray some of the cost. Please contact us to discuss in more detail at tech@csquaredgroup.com.

Event Volunteers:
Many of our events have staffing needs. If you have an interest in event planning and would like to volunteer, please let us know. We are always happy to consider larger opportunities for individuals with serious interest. Please e-mail us at volunteers@csquaredgroup.com to discuss further.

If it is beneficial for you (or your firm) to work alongside us, we look forward to discussing a mutually beneficial partnership.

Please contact us to discuss any of these further.

Many Thanks,

-The C Squared Group

Networking to find Jobs (not Steve)

One of the most frequently asked questions the C Squared Group receives is whether or not job seekers are welcome at our events.

Some thoughts on this topic:

1 – We at the C Squared Group have a deep appreciation for the challenges that job seekers face in the current market – And there are many ways we can help. However, in order to preserve the integrity and focus of our events, C Squared Group events are strictly closed to job seekers.

2 – The C Squared Group does look to verify employment status of all attendees at our events. This is an imperfect process due to the large number of events that we host. We do ask that all attendees respect these restrictions and we will make sure we continue to improve our screening processes. One way we are doing this is by building out our Host Committee and Brand Ambassador programs.

3 – We are actively developing out a platform to help promote compelling job opportunities to our large and growing audience of qualified professionals. If you are an employer looking to hire, a recruiter looking to promote your available positions, or a job seeker – Please contact us at info@csquaredgroup.com to discuss ways the C Squared Group can be of assistance.

Contacts and Cocktails: Which finance event is right for you?

C Squared Group in Trader Monthly!

The C Squared Group’s New York hedge fund event series was covered in the September 2008 issue of Trader Monthly – Please see below for URL and the text.

C2 Omissions

Despite the proliferation of online social networking, face time remains invaluable. But professional meet-and-greets can be a drag if you have to run a gantlet of retail salesmen just to get a free drink. That's why Jordan Cohen, a former private banker at Deutsche Bank, founded The C Squared Group (csquaredgroup.com), which screens out unwanted riffraff to provide venues for hedge-fund traders and relevant service providers to forge ties without being hit up for business cards by annuity peddlers. The C Squared hedgie soirees are held every other month -- currently in New York, with expansion pending. "Too many of these industry networking events don't screen out real-estate brokers and run-of-the-mill financial advisers," he says. "We do." Plus -- and perhaps most importantly -- C Squared events (which typically run $30 for three to four hours) feature an open bar. We'd like to see you just try to drink your weight in vodka tonics on Facebook.
