About Ignite-U Networking

Business Networking in Tacoma That Actually Feels Human

If you’re looking for business networking in Tacoma, Pierce County or the South Sound, Ignite-U Networking gives local business owners, entrepreneurs and professionals a place to build real relationships, make valuable connections and grow their businesses.

Ignite-U meets three times every week at Tower Lanes in Tacoma, making it easy to find a meeting that works with your schedule.

Tuesday Lunch: 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM
Wednesday Lunch: 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM
Friday Breakfast: 7:30 AM to 9:00 AM

Come to one meeting or attend several. The idea is simple: get in the room, meet good people and give relationships enough time to turn into opportunities.

A Different Kind of Tacoma Networking Group

A lot of business networking organizations are built around rules, attendance requirements and referral quotas.

Ignite-U is different.

We have no mandatory attendance requirements, no industry exclusivity and no referral quotas.

We believe networking works best when people actually want to be in the room.

That means you can focus on getting to know other members, learning what they do, understanding who makes a good referral for them and letting those relationships develop naturally.

There’s no pressure to manufacture referrals just to hit a number.

No one loses their spot because they missed a meeting.

And we don’t believe only one person from an industry should be allowed in the room. Two people can do similar work and still build completely different relationships.

More Than Just Passing Business Cards

Ignite-U meetings are designed to get people talking.

You’ll meet business owners and professionals from industries including real estate, construction, home services, insurance, finance, marketing, healthcare, professional services, hospitality and many others.

But the goal isn’t to leave with the biggest stack of business cards.

The goal is to build relationships with people who know you, trust you and remember what you do when an opportunity comes along.

That’s when networking actually becomes valuable.

Over the years, Ignite-U members have built friendships, partnerships, referral relationships and customer connections that have produced real business.

Networking for Tacoma, Gig Harbor and the South Sound

Although our weekly meetings are held in Tacoma, Ignite-U attracts business owners and professionals from throughout Pierce County and the South Sound, including Tacoma, Gig Harbor, University Place, Fircrest, Lakewood and surrounding communities.

If you’re looking for business networking near Gig Harbor, our Tacoma meetings are just across the Tacoma Narrows Bridge and give Gig Harbor professionals an opportunity to expand their relationships throughout Pierce County.

That matters because business doesn’t stop at a city limit.

Gig Harbor companies serve Tacoma customers. Tacoma companies serve Gig Harbor customers. Ignite-U helps bring those business communities together.

More Ways to Stay Connected

Networking doesn’t have to end when the meeting does.

Ignite-U members can continue building their visibility and relationships through the IgniteU365 business directory, member resources, networking events, training opportunities and our online community.

Your IgniteU365 profile gives other members and potential customers another way to learn about your business, your services and the people you want to meet.

The more people understand what you do, the easier it becomes for them to recognize an opportunity for you.

Built Around Relationships

Ignite-U has grown through years of bringing local business people together.

Like most good things, it didn’t start with a packed room.

There were meetings in the early days when hardly anyone showed up.

But we kept going because we believed something pretty simple:

Business gets better when good people know more good people.

That idea is still at the heart of Ignite-U today.

We aren’t trying to create the most rigid networking organization.

We’re trying to create a room people want to come back to.

A room where you can meet someone today, see them again next week, learn more about them over time and eventually become comfortable putting your reputation behind an introduction.

That’s real networking.
