First Tuesday in Bettendorf meeting at the Hilton Garden Inn.

The meeting begins at noon. Hear from city leaders about what's happening around Bettendorf. Introduce yourself and your business to the group. Get to know other Bettendorf business owners.

Brian Monroe will be our guest speaker. Brian has been in business development and marketing communications for more than 40 years. This includes selling soup for Campbells, microwave ovens for Amana, as a partner in his own business-to-business ad agency, and for 20 years as a senior account executive for Amperage Marketing & Fundraising. Brian’s career at Amperage was cut short by cutbacks due to COVID, but he is grateful to now represent Safer Foundation as resource development manager for Safer’s Quad Cities operations.

Lunch is $11.50 and includes entree, salad, drink, tax, and gratuity. You may pay at the door or pre-pay on our website to save time in line. Visit the BettendorfBusiness.Net networking page to pre-pay or scan the QR Code to go directly to our site.
