What is LinkedIn Local?

In 2017, a few professionals in Coffs Harbor, Australia decided to do something different. Instead of just connecting on LinkedIn, they met in person! That simple idea spread quickly to more than 100 countries!

LinkedIn Local Columbus is a space where people come together in a way that feels comfortable, genuine, and fun. It’s not about transactions. It’s about trust. It’s not about collecting business cards. It’s about building real relationships.

How Many of Your LinkedIn Connections Do You Really Know?

You’ve built your network. You’ve added connections, commented on posts, and shared your story. But how many of your LinkedIn connections do you truly know?

And how many of them really know you?

For most professionals, the answer is not enough.

We get busy. We scroll, like, and message, but rarely make time to meet the people who could change everything.

That’s why LinkedIn Local Columbus exists.

It’s one evening to turn your online connections into real relationships that build community, collaboration, and results.

Why This Event Is Different

At LinkedIn Local Columbus, you get to influence the room. You can intentionally invite your own LinkedIn connections, collaborators, partners, clients, and peers you want to build stronger relationships with.

Instead of hoping to bump into the right person, you create that opportunity yourself. It’s not about collecting business cards or making a quick pitch. It’s about connecting on purpose and building relationships that lead to real opportunities, ideas, and growth.

Here, you’ll find people who genuinely care about connection, collaboration, and making a difference in Columbus and beyond.
