March Madness Networking Event 2027

Join us for an afternoon full of college basketball and networking

Buddy & Pal’s, 1206 E Summit St., Crown Point, IN

Don’t let your bracket be the only thing that breaks this year—break into new circles and expand your professional network!

NWIBRT and CAF are teaming up for a "Full Court Press" networking event. We’re bringing together the region’s heavy hitters—from developers and contractors to financial experts and economic leaders—for a day where the games are big, but the opportunities are bigger.

• The Action: Catch the tournament's most thrilling moments on the big screen.

• The Network: Connect with the developers and business owners driving our local economy.

• The Assist: Enjoy plenty of food and cold drinks on the house while you talk shop.

Whether you’re a basketball fanatic or just here for the connections, this is one "seed" you don’t want to miss.

Hosted by NWIBRT and CAF
