The Right People,
Making the Right Connections

An invite-only event where investors, developers, and lenders build relationships that move business forward.

Great Conversations.

Valuable Connections.

Real Opportunities.

You Don't Need More Contacts. You Need the

Right Connections.

You’ve been to enough networking events to feel the vibe as soon as you walk in. You know within minutes if it’ll be worth your time or if it’s just another name tag and a lukewarm drink. You’re not looking for a packed room or a stack of business cards. You want one room with the right people where introductions actually matter and you leave with real opportunities in motion.

That’s why we created Sip with Slate.

It’s a casual, invite-only evening designed to bring real people together for meaningful conversation and strategic connection. No panels. No fluff. Just good drinks, great people, and smart business.

What You Can Expect:

  • A curated room of active investors, developers, and lenders
  • Space for meaningful, relaxed conversation
  • A warm atmosphere rooted in trust, not transactions
  • A repeat-worthy tradition hosted by Slate Building Group

Walked out with Funding Partners

“I walked in expecting a few good conversations and walked out with two funding partners. The connections I made at Sip with Slate helped finance a development project we were working on. It was more than just a handshake—it was a game changer.”

—Kris Boschele, Way Homes
