The Square Seller Community Meet-Up is more than just an event — it's a chance to connect, learn, and grow alongside your peers. We believe in the power of community and the collective wisdom that arises when like-minded individuals come together.

 

Agenda Highlights:

  • Engaging panel discussion: Hear from successful local entrepreneurs who have leveraged Square to grow their businesses. Gain inspiration on cultivating community with your customers & employees, sustainable business practices, and marketing & technology.
  • Networking opportunities: Connect with other business owners, share experiences, and build lasting relationships within the Square community. You never know who you might meet!
  • Delicious food and drinks: Indulge in a delectable spread of appetizers and refreshments from Agave Uptown while mingling with fellow attendees.

Hi Community:)

 

Will we be able to meet the organizer of Oakland, CA event?  I would like to have one hosted in San Jose, CA if possible

Admin

There will be several representatives from the seller community team present at the event, myself included 😉 We are the folks organizing the event, and would love to chat more about future opportunities for events.  Simply knowing that there is interest in other locales, even before we've hosted our first local meet-up, is great news!

 

We look forward to meeting you next week @nurturist!

Looking forward to this! 

Hi Leah,

 

This sounds very interesting and would like to attend, However, I now live in Napa.  This is too far for me to have to go that late in the evening.   How do I change my mailing address so you have my correct info.

Good Morning,

Happy Monday

 

I offer coffee exclusively from Perú. Will someone be there tonight to talk about our service for the next event? Silicon Valley would be an ideal place 

Square Champion

So sad but I couldn't find a babysitter and it is too far/late for my little 5-year-old to attend with me.  Hoping you all have another one @isabelle and I can attend then.  Have a great night!
