Our Story

A New Community for Gwinnett Business Owners

Connect Gwinnett was created for business owners and professionals who want more than surface-level networking. We believe genuine business growth comes from genuine relationships — the kind built through trust, consistency, and mutual investment.

Our inaugural meeting took place on October 1, 2026. Eleven local business professionals attended, and several submitted membership applications immediately afterward.

Today we meet every thursday morning at la Madeleine in Buford, and we're building a professional networking community in Gwinnett County that's focused on relationships, referrals, and helping one another succeed.
