The recent Make It in Brooklyn Business Meetup series brought local entrepreneurs together at Downtown Brooklyn’s Hilton Hotel Brooklyn. Attendees had the opportunity to network in the hotel’s newly renovated bar, lounge and the Black Walnut eatery, tour the refurbished suites and amenities, enjoy chef-prepared cuisine, and connect with fellow members of the Downtown Brooklyn business community. 

The event saw notable attendance from representatives of NYC Tourism + Conventions, Petit Poussins, Golfzon, Fogo de Chão and Raising Cane’s, alongside members from the hospitality and real estate sectors.
