Susan and Carolyn became friends over 20 years ago teaching business classes to entrepreneurs at a local college. They were reunited this past March and were inspired to create a supportive business network while hiking in the Grand Canyon days prior to the COVID shutdowns. “We could feel the world shifting and a need for us to learn to connect in a new way. As we looked out into the expansive wonder of the canyon we were uplifted by its potential and we came up with the idea to form the Grand Connection.”

Our intention is to provide business solutions to help you connect, create and collaborate through:

The Grand Connection Network meets every 2 weeks on Fridays. Each meeting combines business education, sharing and ample networking opportunities! We have two formats:

a) Our original Grand Connection event with breakouts, a guest speaker and a facilitated mastermind,

b) Real Time Connections where we partner with other networking groups to receive networking tips and breakout for several rounds of networking to meet business peers and practice.
