Brews and Bowties - June
In the summer heat of June, SACC-Philadelphia co-sponsored an
event of the Philly Beer Week that had rarely been seen before: a
cocktail and bowtie dresscode party. High-end regional beer from
eight of the best craft breweries were presented to the guests to
sample. This successful event was held at the Racquet Club of
Philadelphia and around 150 people attended. For those who did
not come with a bowtie, a great variety of high quality bowties
could be purchased on-site by A. Davidsen Master Tailors, who
also showed how to tie it like a proper socialite. The evening entertainment was produced by Rolling Barrel Events who hosted their
own house band along with dance music mixes from Lotis Media.
Young Professional - June
The Young Professional event took place at Mac’s Tavern in
Old City. The evening had a good turnout although the aim
for the future is to reach out to more young people interested in making connection to the Swedish community in
the region. The national organization, SACC-YP Philadelphia
strives to provide a platform for social interaction, as well as
connecting them with companies and career opportunities.
The YPN meetings range from very casual business mingles to
more structured events featuring speakers on a broad range
of topics that can be of interest to someone starting a career.
YPN primarily focuses on those who have an interest in promoting business relations between Sweden and America or
have ties to the Scandinavian community, but anyone who
would like to join is more than welcome to do so. It is an excellent opportunity for any driven individual to build a network. As a member of our YPN you will be part of, and get
access to, our extensive local network, be invited to all our
events, get membership discounts and many other benefits.
