A huge and unexpected snow storm hit NYC this past Thursday. It was messy and caused record breaking traffic jams in the tri-state area. But that didn’t stop E.K.O. Event Group from hosting a great event at the swanky Yotel hotel located right in the heart of Times Square, New York.

The event aptly titled “New Connections Mixer” had a great turn out despite the storm. The building was packed with intelligent, smart and successful young professionals doing their thing in the media, fashion and beauty industries. Young millennial representatives from conglomerates like beauty house Estée Lauder and media powerhouse BET came out to give good advice and share their stories of success with the next up-and-coming corporate executives. So, you already know #BrooklynGirlCode was in the building and we had a wonderful time making new connections at the “New Connection Mixer!”
