TROY – IT Social 5:01 will host its fall social networking event at Granite City Food and Brewery on Sept. 26 at 5:01 pm.

IT Social 5:01 events are targeted toward IT professionals but are open to anyone looking to be empowered by social networking with the best and brightest leaders from the greater Detroit area. These professionals come together for networking, knowledge sharing, and professional career advancement opportunities.

Sponsored by Qstride, the event will offer participants the opportunity to enjoy complimentary appetizers, delicious cuisine, and discounted beverages.

?IT Social 5:01 events are a great way to network with likeminded business and IT professionals in a social setting,? said Shane Gianino, Vice President of Business Development at Qstride. ?You just never know who you might meet that will empower your business or provide you that opportunity you were looking for.?

There will be no cost for the event but donations will be accepted to help Feed Hungry Kids in metro Detroit via selected charity Forgotten Harvest. Your contribution will help shape our local community and will be appreciated.
