The Elevator: Virtual Speed Networking
THE ELEVATOR 🛗
A Digital Speed-Networking Experience by Werk the Room
"You are one relationship away from your next opportunity."
THE ELEVATOR is a virtual networking experience bringing ambitious women across tech, sports, media, business and creative industries into one intentional room.
The best opportunities don't start with an application. They start with a conversation.
Whether you're making a career pivot, growing your business, expanding into a new industry or simply being intentional about who you know — this room was built for women making moves.
WHAT TO EXPECT
⚡ Intentional Speed Networking
Move through structured, small-group conversations designed to help you meet new people beyond your usual circle.
🎤 3 Career Coaching Sprints
Quick, actionable conversations designed around three things every mover + shaker should know:
How to get in the room.
Teaching you how to position yourself for opportunities before you need them.
How to pivot industries.
Learn to translate the experience you already have, and tell a clear story about your transferable skills.
How to nurture your network.
Turn introductions into genuine professional relationships that last beyond the event.
🛗 Sharpen Your Elevator Pitch
Your story matters, and you'll have the opportunity to refine how you introduce yourself. You'll use the space as a networking playground and practice in real time. The goal is for you to leave more confident telling people exactly who you are and where you're headed.
WHO'S IN THE ROOM?
Women who love the WNBA, are building professional careers, businesses, brands and communities.
Professionals making pivots, or are already sitting at interesting tables — and looking to expand who sits beside them.
We're bringing together professionals from the Bay Area, Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Atlanta, Dallas/Houston and beyond.
WHY THE ELEVATOR?
After bringing our community together in the Bay Area, Werk the Room wanted to create an experience without geographic barriers.
THE ELEVATOR takes our approach to intentional connection digital — making it easier to build a community ecosystem.
