The Dedicated Networking Event
Imagine a networking event purpose built for nothing but creating powerful connections.
No upsell. No high ticket offer. Just connections.
That is JV Connect. Created by Michael Whitehouse, The Guy Who Knows a Guy, the purpose of JV Connect is take everything powerful and transformative that he has found in years of networking and put it into one incredible event.
The goal is for every attendee to make connections that create $100,000 of value for them. This is not hyperbole. We all know what the right connection can be worth, and everything about this event is putting you in the right room with the right people, while providing training and support to help you get the most of it.

meet the best people
We have personally invited dozens of highly experienced, established, and ethical entrepreneurs to attend as “Guides.” You will make powerful connections with high quality people!
New Ideas and solutions
Networking is about more than finding promotional partners. Hanging out with successful, inspiring, experienced people is a way to learn new solutions and strategies at the cutting edge.
No Big Pitch, Just Great Connections
We all know the game with multiday events. You come and get the value of the event, be it teaching, networking, or working through a process. Then it’s time for the next step, the offer. For many events, this is a natural fit. You worked with the host, and they’re giving you the opportunity to work with them more.
But at a networking event, making such an offer detracts from the networking. The best people don’t want to attend an enrollment event. Their time is too valuable!
That’s why there is no high ticket offer being made at JV Connect. The event is the offer.
Naturally, there will be some opportunities presented, but none of these will take more than 5 minutes before we get back to what you came for: the networking, the connections, the deal making.
What we want you to buy at JV Connect is a membership to the next JV Connect because you got so much value!
The Networking Event
(December 10-11)
The core of the event is directed breakout sessions, in which you will have the opportunity to connect with many great people and determine who is most valuable to follow up with.
Between the breakouts will be quick hits of education to make your experience more effective, fun connection activities, and networking activities from some great guests in the networking world.
How It Works
What makes JV Connect different is the unique structure. Let’s take a look at some of the details that make the magic.
No pitches, no speeches – There are no presentations, trainings, or lengthy offers made at this event. The longest we ever speak that’s not a networking activity is 5 minute explainers or 3 minute sponsor spots. So it’s all connecting, all the time.
8 Second Introduction – We use a special 8 second introduction format. It’s just long enough to let people know what you do and get curious, but not so long that they get bored, and it leaves time for more powerful conversation.
Unique breakout format – Each day, we have about 9 breakout sessions. They are 23 minutes long with 11 to 15 people in each one. Each breakout has a theme, such as helping each other to find stages or ‘what is working now?’ They are not a place for attendees to just repeat their pitch. Rather, it’s a time for productive conversation and sharing.
Masterminding – At past events, members started supporting, coaching, and mentoring each other in the breakout rooms, so we formalized it into actual mastermind hotseats. People connect at a deeper level when they support each other, creating much deeper connections than a typical networking event.

Meet the Sponsors
JV Connect is made possible by the support of our sponsors. Each sponsor will have the opportunity to briefly share an opportunity to connect with the entire audience, with a guaranteed level of engagement. Their time will be brief so as not to detract from the networking opportunities, but participants would be well advised to engage because our sponsors are awesome people with some really cool things going on.
