Big idea
A full-day expo where San Diego’s business owners and health & wellness practitioners meet, learn, demo, and make tangible referral connections. Leave with real value—up to $1,000 in wellness freebies, new business relationships, and a practical “Network Like a Pro” toolkit built to generate referrals and partnerships.
Who should attend
- Small business owners who sell wellbeing or want to offer wellness benefits to clients/employees
- Health & wellness practitioners (massage, PT, nutrition, yoga, mental health, corporate wellness) seeking B2B referrals
- Sales & HR leaders exploring corporate wellness partners
- San Diegans who value a holistic approach to business and community
Event highlights — what you’ll walk away with
- 10 Practitioner Spotlights — short, high-impact showcases from leading wellness pros
- 8 Vendor Booths + 4 Demo Office Spaces — see services, sample products, and book follow-ups on site
- Up to $1,000 in wellness freebies available via vendor promotions and opportunities
- 3 Speed Networking Sessions — structured rounds to practice referral asks and capture warm introductions
- Network Like a Pro packet — a takeaway packet (templates, scripts, partner playbook) tailored for referral growth
- Recording & Content Opportunities — short testimonial/referral clips to promote your business (opt-in)
- Swag bags, sponsor activations, and post-event montage shared on LinkedIn & the member portal
Why this matters for your business
This is not a trade show — it’s a referral engine. We’re combining education, real demos, and structured networking so you leave with:
- Immediate referral leads (vendors and speakers expect 50+ referral opportunities)
- Practical tools to convert conversations into second-generation intros
- Visibility with decision-makers and local business communities
