What To Expect

Join us for our August Ocean State Networking event!

You built the business. You do the work. And then the rules change on you without so much as a heads up.

Rhode Island has new laws landing on business owners in 2026, and most people won't find out about them until something goes sideways. Usually at the worst possible time. Usually with a bill attached.

This month, Ocean State Networking welcomes spotlight sponsor Attorney Jules D'Alessandro for a straight-talking breakdown of what's actually changing, what applies to your business, and what to handle now instead of scrambling later. No legalese, no lecture. Just the things you'll be glad you knew.

Then stick around and do what we do best: connect with business owners, entrepreneurs, and professionals from across Rhode Island over great food and even better conversation.

General admission includes complimentary soft drinks and apps. A cash bar will be available. And don't forget to bring plenty of business cards!
