Connects is a series of private networking events for urban creatives and millennials in the arts, entertainment, media, finance, and law. Through our annual 3-day industry-focused festival and conference held in Harlem, NYC, Connects brings multilevel creatives and professionals together with one common goal - success. The heart of Connects is highlighting the importance of information - sharing and relationships within business. Connects is a hub for quality creatives and entrepreneurs to meet and build with one another. We are responsible for connections made in a variety of industries and companies including VH1 & Sony Music's Red Music Distribution.
