And, many of our 2016 Fellows were not only introduced to their next job opportunity, but also had a chance to further their Greensboro-based networks and connect at social events.

   

3. Free Nights Out.Throughout the summer, Fellows experience all that Greensboro has to offer from nights out downtown to free dinners at local restaurants and even running the bases at the Greensboro Grasshoppers game!

4. Networking for Professional and Personal Connections.You’ll meet new friends from Greensboro’s 7 diverse higher education institutions plus rub elbows with Greensboro’s most elite leaders. How about sharing a bite after work with the global HR leader from a top Fortune 500 company!?
