IABC LA provides a mix of networking and professional development events. For in-person we'll rotate throughout Los Angeles; including Downtown, South Bay, Pasadena/Burbank, Culver City and Woodland Hills to give all members at least a couple of chances to attend without spending all day on the freeway.  Most monthly events are held in the evening and last for approximately 2 hours.
