Meet and Mingle With Pittsburgh Delegates to the One Young World Summit at GlobalPittsburgh First Thursdays Networking Event Nov. 1 at Shadow Lounge

Please join us for festivities on Thursday, Nov. 1 as we carry on the momentum of the recent One Young World Pittsburgh Summit and continue to welcome international students and globally-minded members and friends at the next GlobalPittsburgh First Thursdays international networking event at Shadow Lounge in East Liberty from 5:30-8:00 p.m.

This month’s over-21 event will feature some of the local participants in Pittsburgh’s recent One Young World Summit, as well as eight international journalists and politicians who are in town learning about the upcoming Presidential election. GlobalPittsburgh’s Nadya Kessler, was a One Young World delegate (thanks to a Fellowship that she received from the World Affairs Council). The eight members of the Elections delegation joining us for the evening are from France, Indonesia, Singapore and Sweden.

There will be free appetizers, bar specials, raffles, cash bar and more. Bring your friends! Meet our visiting international delegations and mingle with many of the region's entrepreneurs and innovators.

GlobalPittsburgh First Thursdays is a regular monthly night of networking and socializing with different themes, different activities and different locations - but always with an international flavor - on the first Thursday of every month. It's an evening of friends, interesting conversation and good spirits with an international flair.

Shadow Lounge is located at 5972 Baum Boulevard in East Liberty.

Admission is FREE for paid GlobalPittsburgh members and One Young World Ambassadors and volunteers (or anyone with a One Young World t-shirt or badge). Admission is $5 at the door for everyone else. Membership information will be available at the event, but you may also join GlobalPittsburgh now at www.globalpittsburgh.org/membership and get in free on Nov. 1.

Many thanks to support from Vibrant Pittsburgh, whose mini-grant program helps make these events possible.
