Venue: The Moot House, Fort Collins
Business networking without the awkward networking part.
If traditional networking events filled with elevator pitches, sales pressure and stacks of forgotten business cards aren't your style, this lunch was designed for you.
Fort Collins Women in Business Lunch brings together a small group of women entrepreneurs, executives, consultants, creatives and professionals from across Northern Colorado for intentional conversation and relationship-building over lunch.
No keynote speakers.
No stage presentations.
No public sales pitches.
Instead, you'll spend the first part of the gathering at an assigned small table, followed by an open post-lunch networking period where you can meet women from across the room.
What to Expect
Small-Table Conversations
Attendees begin at assigned tables in small groups.
The goal is to create conversations that are easier to join, easier to contribute to and more useful than trying to work a crowded networking room.
- Guided prompts may explore:
Current business priorities
Operational challenges
Growth experiments
Hiring and outsourcing lessons
Useful professional resources
Collaboration opportunities
Referral relationships
- There is no requirement to pitch your business to the room.
Banquet Lunch Included
Your paid event ticket includes the confirmed group luncheon package arranged with The Moot House.
- The luncheon package includes:
One entrée selection from the event's confirmed group menu
One standard non-alcoholic beverage
Reserved lunch seating in the Hunt Room
- The event will use a limited group menu selected from The Moot House's banquet luncheon offerings.
Final entrée selections will be communicated to registered attendees before the event.
Additional food or alcoholic beverages are not included with admission and remain subject to venue service and payment policies.
Connection Card
Every paid attendee receives a physical Connection Card.
Use it to note:
- People you'd like to reconnect with
- Potential collaborations
- Useful professional resources
- Referral opportunities
- Follow-up actions
The event provides opportunities to build professional relationships but does not guarantee referrals, clients, partnerships or other business outcomes.
Post-Lunch Connection Mingle
After lunch, the room transitions from seated table conversation into a more open networking period.

Meet women from other tables
Follow up on introductions
Exchange LinkedIn profiles
