NETWORK CHARLOTTE’S STORY
Over decades of helping clients plan their futures as a Certified Financial Planner™, David Cauble saw firsthand how the right relationships can open doors, spark ideas, and change lives.
So, in 2009, he began a networking group rooted in the belief that real success comes from meaningful connections – not small talk.
Network Charlotte has since hosted hundreds of professional networking events, facilitated thousands of introductions, expanded our team, and developed a community more than 65,000 strong.
In 2024, after 15 years of community-building and thoughtful feedback, we decided to rework our model to better serve Charlotteans of all ages and career stages.
From networking events and professional development opportunities to volunteer projects and mixers, we believe that when people intentionally connect, lives can be changed for the better.
Whether you’re looking to advance your career, start a business, or just find your people, we hope to help you connect with purpose!
