Bagels, Business, and Big Connections: Why You’ll Love the June Bagels & Business Networking Monthly Event

June 02, 20264 min read

There’s something magical about starting your day with fresh bagels, hot coffee, and a room full of motivated professionals ready to connect. That’s exactly what you’ll experience at the June Bagels & Business Networking Monthly event on Tuesday, June 23rd, 2026, hosted by Serendipity Labs in Clayton, MO.

This isn’t just another networking event. It’s your monthly opportunity to build meaningful relationships, discover new business opportunities, and grow your professional network in a warm, welcoming environment.

What Makes This Event Different?

The Consistent Schedule You Can Plan For

Bagels & Business Networking Monthly happens every month on the 4th Tuesday, creating a reliable rhythm for your professional calendar. No guessing, no searching, just show up on the 4th Tuesday and connect.

The Perfect Morning Time Slot

9:00 AM to 10:00 AM—the ideal early morning window that:

  • Gets networking done before your workday gets busy

  • Energizes you for the rest of your day

  • Doesn't conflict with lunch meetings or afternoon appointments

  • Lets you leave with fresh connections and renewed motivation

The Food That Brings Everyone Together

Fresh bagels and coffee set the stage for casual, comfortable conversations. There’s something about sharing breakfast that makes introductions feel natural and less formal than evening events. Plus, everyone loves bagels!

Where It Happens

Serendipity Labs Private Offices & Coworking
8112 Maryland Avenue, Suite 400
Clayton, St. Louis, MO

This premier coworking space in Clayton brings together entrepreneurs, startups, and established businesses in one collaborative environment. You’re not just attending a networking event—you’re stepping into a thriving business community.

The Networking Format That Works

The event combines structured networking with open networking time, giving you the best of both worlds:

Structured Introductions

Get organized introductions that ensure you meet everyone in the room. No more awkward "who should I talk to?" moments or missing key attendees.

Open Networking Time

After the structured portion, enjoy free-flowing conversations where you can dive deeper with people who share your interests, industry, or business goals.

This dual approach means you get maximum exposure to all attendees while still having time for meaningful one-on-one conversations.

Who Should Attend?

This event welcomes everyone—whether you're:

  • An established business person ready to connect with new collaborators

The event is designed for entrepreneurs and professionals at all stages, creating a diverse mix of attendees from various industries and experience levels.

Why Monthly Networking Matters

Networking isn’t a one-time thing. The most successful professionals understand that consistent connection-building is the key to long-term growth. Here’s why attending monthly makes a difference:

Build Relationships Over Time

Meeting the same people regularly lets you develop genuine relationships rather than just exchanging business cards. You’ll see how others' businesses grow and evolve, creating natural opportunities for collaboration.

Stay Top of Mind

When you attend monthly, you become a familiar face in your professional community. People remember you, trust you, and think of you when opportunities arise.

Track Your Progress

Monthly events let you see your networking ROI over time. You’ll notice new connections leading to referrals, partnerships, friendships, and business opportunities.

Never Miss an Opportunity

With consistent monthly events, you're always in the game. If you miss one month, there’s another coming up in just 30 days.
