    Thanks to everyone that replied to this post and sent me a private message with your response. The most popular date and time for an informal, casual virtual networking hour is Wednesday, July 14, 2021 at 2:00 PM MT (1 PM PT / 3 PM CT / 4 PM ET). We are going to call this the UAI Power Hour! Keep an eye out for registration for this Power Hour tomorrow. We ask that you register, so we can send you a calendar invitation with login credentials for the Teams meeting. 

    If you have any questions, please reply to this post or send me a direct message on my profile for @Leslie.

    See you online!

    Cheers,

         Leslie ​

    I agree with Ron, Wednesday the 14th at 2:00 PM MT is good. The other time that works good for me is Friday the 16th at 10:00 AM MT.

    Subject: Questions about a Member Requested Informal Virtual Networking Hour

    Hello UAI Members,

    We have received several requests from you to host an informal virtual networking hour. You have asked us not to pre-plan topics of discussion. You want time with your fellow members to ask each other questions, pick each others’ brains, talk about use cases you’re working on… basically to have scheduled time for casual and informal networking.

    I want to schedule this time in July, but have some questions for you first. I want to make sure I meet the majority of members’ needs, so please reply to this email with your answers. Based on your answers, I will schedule the casual and informal networking hour… let’s call it a Power Hour!

    1. I was thinking about scheduling this during the second week of July 2021. which day works best for you?
      • Wednesday, July 14, 2021
      • Thursday, July 15, 2021
      • Friday, July 16, 2021
    2. What time of day works best for you? 
      • 10:00 AM MT / 9:00 AM PT / 11:00 AM CT / 12:00 PM ET
      • 12:00 PM MT / 11:00 AM PT / 1:00 PM CT / 2:00 PM ET
      • 2:00 PM MT / 1:00 PM PT / 3:00 PM CT / 4:00 PM ET)

    Once I receive answers to the above questions, I will schedule a UAI Member Power Hour! I’m excited to try this out.

    Thanks!
