On August 31, 2016, Tuesdaynights hosted yet another successful bi-monthly gathering at the Google office in Venice. Sponsored by Google, the Fast Networking event provided an invaluable opportunity for professional women from diverse fields to help and connect with each other.
Participants were separated into smaller groups for a more intimate discussion, in which they shared questions and concerns about their businesses. Other female leaders then provided them with insights and advice on navigating through the business world. One of the participants was Cassandra Krause, Vice President Development at Fulfillment Fund, who pitched for other companies to help under-resourced teens obtain internships. Another participant had questions about the costs and risks associated with the hiring process, and was provided with a solution by Melinda Moore, one of the co-founders of Tuesdaynights and an award-winning social entrepreneur.
