Bethesda, MD-BOSS Staffing, a leading niche provider of creative and marketing communications professionals, has announced the launch of "Creative Connects," a monthly networking event which will take place in several of their regional markets this fall: Baltimore, Md.; Philadelphia, Pa and Washington, D.C.. Creative Connects was launched in New Jersey in January of 2006.

The Company introduced Creative Connects as a forum for professionals within the communications industry-marketing, public relations, advertising, web design, and creative services-to come together to network, share ideas, and to foster community and collegiality as professionals.

"Members of our freelance talent pool as well as our client base have expressed a desire for a central forum where they could connect with other professionals within the industry," states Jenna Stone, Marketing Manager of BOSS Staffing, "We launched Creative Connects in our New Jersey/Metropolitan New York market in January of this year, and it has been enormously successful, bringing 50-plus professionals together each month. Now, we'll continue to meet that need by bringing it to our other markets in September."

While there are many professional programs available in all industries, Creative Connects is a different format, providing creative communications professionals an opportunity to come together in simply a social environment. There is no formal program or speaker, however, each month Creative Connects New Jersey invites a notable member of the creative industry as a special guest, and that format will be adopted in the other markets, as well. The agenda is simple-lite bites and beverages courtesy of BOSS and attendees are welcome to drop in anytime between 5:30-8 p.m. to mingle. Program is free-of-charge and meets the second Wednesday of each month. No reservation is needed. Visit www.creativeconnects.com for additional information.
