ConnectivIT® Ball
ConnectivIT® Ball:
Saturday evening, 10/16/21 – Uptown/Outdoors
Apparo’s ConnectivIT® Ball is traditionally a premier black-tie event that brings together senior-level executives, business leaders, and decision-makers in the IT community to raise funds to provide local nonprofits technology solutions. Due to the pandemic, this year’s event will be a more casual experience in an outdoor setting. As sponsors, companies receive exposure throughout the ConnectivIT® Series of networking events while supporting the essential missions of Charlotte’s nonprofits.
