Description:
Just as many successful industry professionals have noted some of their best ideas were born during break room chats … similarly, we believe that some of the best advice and most effective networking PMI members can receive is through interacting with each other in a social environment.   This event will replace the San Bruno Breakfast meetings. The agenda will be similar to the Breakfast Meetings where the host will facilitate a round table discussion on agenda topics solicited from the attendees during introductions.
 
This event is targeted for members who cannot attend the PMI early morning Breakfast Meetings or the Evening Programs.  The Happy Hour will go from 5:30 pm to 7:00 pm in San Bruno and will be held every third Wednesday of each month.  We ask that if you do plan to attend, please plan to be on time.   The only cost is what you order from the menu, separate checks.
