Northern Virginia Small Business Networking meets on Wednesday, October 28, 2026 from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at Venture X in Fairfax. The event is free to attend, and the organizer asks attendees to RSVP on Meetup.
What to expect
This is a relationship and referral focused networking evening for local small business professionals. The listing describes it as low pressure, with no fees and no pitches. You can stop by for a few minutes or stay for the full two hours, and refreshments are provided. No formal agenda or speaker program is published, so expect open conversation rather than presentations.
Who should attend
- Founders and small business owners in Northern Virginia who want to build a local referral network
- Professionals interested in business to business collaboration
- Newcomers to the DMV who want a relaxed way to meet Fairfax area business owners
