Next Meetup: Tuesday, January 11 @ The Breslin Bar

Tuesday, January 11
7-9pm
The Breslin Bar
http://thebreslin.com/
http://thebreslin.com/menu-cocktails.html

I've never been here so I can't recommend a place at the bar to meet up, but as only 6 of you voted I'll assume it's a low turnout and we'll figure it out :)

See you all there!

Another meetup, another happy time

Thanks to those of you who showed up this past Tuesday @ the Royalton Hotel bar.

Companies represented were:
www.avon.com
www.hotelvillavaradero.com
www.vivadm.com
www.dlapiper.com

Even though the turnouts are small, it seems that those who can make it are really glad they did. I'll keep this up until either no one shows up or people don't find it useful.

Next month, Tuesday, January 4th might be a little too close to New Years and many of you might not be ready on the 4th, we can schedule it for the 11th instead.

Please Vote (right-hand column) your next date preference: Jan 4 or Jan 11th.



Also, if anyone knows this spot, let me know if it's good for us. The description I read in Budget Travel magazine sounded about right:

Jimmy's Corner @ 140 W 44th St

Or there's Kari's suggestion of The Breslin, I know for dinner it's a bit pricey but haven't been there for drinks. Anyone know if it's a good spot in terms of places to talk and mid-priced drinks, maybe some bar food?

Next DM Meet up: Tuesday Dec 7th 7-9pm

This coming Sunday is the DM alumni/students holiday party @ 6.30pm. I'm sure you all got the email.

This coming Tuesday night is the next DM meetup. Come with your questions, deals for networking, ideas for new businesses, feedback about trends and events, complain about something in business/design/world, or just come have a drink and say hi.

http://www.royaltonhotel.com/#/home/ Walk straight down that hallway photographed (the lady with the nice legs will probably not be standing there) and go toward the back where the balls of light hanging from the ceiling are. Those are the tables. The first person of our group to arrive, get a table.

Last chance to make a new bar location suggestion

Anyone have any bar suggestions? If not, it's going to be the Royalton Hotel bar -- everyone meet up in the back by the tables.

Need new bar suggestion in midtown

Tuesday, December 7th is our next meetup. Looking for suggestions for a nice spot, not too pricey in midtown that's conveniently located to a lot of trains.

Any ideas? Post them here!!

Good turnout for first meetup

Thanks to everyone who was able to make it last night. It was a great chance to catchup.

Since the hotel bar is nice and comfortable, but a bit pricey, I'm open to suggestions for another spot in midtown.

Some of the companies represented last night were:

BLANK SPACE art gallery http://www.blankspaceart.com and http://www.facebook.com/pages/BLANK-SPACE/113340065880

Rubina Design http://www.rubinadesign.com/Home.html and http://www.facebook.com/pages/Brooklyn-NY/Rubina-Design/102527406634

DM Meetup #2: Tuesday, Nov 2, 6.30-8.30pm

Location, centrally located and near almost every subway:
Lobby Bar @ Royalton Hotel
44 W 44th St b/w 5th & 6th Aves

http://www.yelp.com/biz/lobby-bar-at-the-royalton-new-york
http://www.royaltonhotel.com/#/explore/?id=dining
http://nymag.com/listings/hotel/royalton/

There is no set agenda, and there is no hard start or stop on the time.

The time was selected to accommodate when most people get out of work and before many of the non-New Yorkers need to get on a bus/train home.

*Let me know if you have any other locations to suggest that would be good for the group. Generally expecting 5-20 people to chat, have a few drinks, spend not a lot of money, and then head out.


AND IF YOU'RE REGISTERED TO VOTE: MAKE SURE YOU VOTE ON TUESDAY BEFORE COMING TO THE BAR!!!
