News from the C Squared Group

We've grown - a lot.

What started with a 100 person guest list in November 2007 is now nearly 40,000 people in the NY area!

Our guest list isn't the only thing that has grown - Our events have grown too!

We now have 7 different events that we host on a regular basis. Some are open to all professionals, while others are open to a specific industry only. We host early evening events over cocktails as well as morning events over coffee before the start of the regular work day.

Whether you have joined us before or want to attend for the first time, we hope you will join us in the near future for a C Squared Event.

What is on the calendar for October?

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.
