Why stop at one networking event when you can make a whole evening of it? 🍸✨

Start with Crawl Your Own Way and end with Tricks of the Trade at The Forge! 🎃

On October 28th, Crawl Your Own Way is kicking off the evening with a unique networking crawl, giving local professionals the chance to make meaningful connections, share ideas, and grow their businesses in a fun, relaxed setting.

Then, bring those new connections over to The Forge for our Tricks of the Trade networking event, featuring SodaGo, great conversations, and a little Halloween fun! 👻

Whether you’re joining the crawl or just coming for Tricks of the Trade, we’d love to see you!

🤝 Two networking experiences. One great evening. Endless opportunities to connect.

Check out the original post for details on signing up for the crawl. We’ll see you at The Forge! 🖤

Are you wanting to pour into your business?
Are you wanting to meet other business owners that you can turn to for business/referrals?
Are you looking to network in a different/fun way?

We are doing a networking crawl on October 28th!
We will be going to 3-4 places where you can grab a drink and network with other professionals, one on one!
Then we will bring you to The Forge - Fund & Coworking for a night of networking where you will get to talk about your business to everyone that’s there!

Each spot is $50 for the crawl! The rest is free!
*Only one business per profession will be allowed on the crawl*

Such a great afternoon at The Forge! We love seeing our space filled with entrepreneurs, big ideas, great conversations… and apparently a little friendly competition too. 😏🏓🎮

Huge thanks to Lamar University Venture Center and Kyle for bringing Entrepreneur in Residence sessions right here to our community. These are exactly the kinds of connections and conversations we want happening at The Forge.

We’re already looking forward to the next one! 🙌

👻 You’ve got the tricks. We’ve got the treats.

Something a little different is coming to SETX small businesses this October.

SodaGo × The Forge × Crawl Your Own Way are teaming up for Tricks of the Trade and this is definitely not your average networking event.

🎃 October 28th

Mark your calendars. More details are coming soon… but trust us, you’ll want to be there. 👀

Good news, power has been restored at The Forge and we are officially back up and running! 🙌

Our lights, A/C, internet, door access, and building systems are all operating normally again, and we’re open as usual.

We apologize for the inconvenience and truly appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding while we worked through the outage. We hope everyone in our community stayed safe through the storm, and we’re happy to welcome you back to The Forge! ❤️

We hope everyone in our community is safe after the tropical storm. 🤍

Like many of our neighbors, The Forge is currently without power. Since the outage affects our lights, A/C, internet, security systems, and electronic door access, we’re unable to safely open the building until service is restored.

Entergy is currently estimating restoration by 6:00 PM on September 3, and we’ll be keeping a close eye on updates and sharing any changes as we get them.

We know storms like this can disrupt a lot more than just a workday, and we’re thinking of everyone across Southeast Texas who is dealing with outages, damage, cleanup, and unexpected changes today.

Please stay safe, check on your neighbors, and take care of each other. We look forward to welcoming everyone back to The Forge as soon as we can. ❤️
