What is Crema at Nona?

Crema at Nona is a morning networking gathering for professionals and business owners from Lake Nona and the wider Orlando area. Hosted by Julio Avilés, it brings people together over coffee, introductions and conversations that can grow into lasting relationships.

Can I come if it’s my first time or I don’t know anyone?

Yes — newcomers are welcome. You can come on your own and meet people as you go. Say hello to Julio when you arrive and let him know it’s your first visit.

What should I expect, and what should I bring?

Expect coffee, friendly introductions and conversations with local professionals and business owners. A short introduction about what you do is helpful, and business cards or an easy way to share your contact details can make following up simpler. Come ready to listen, share and get to know people.

Do I need to register, and is there a cost?

Check the individual event page for attendance instructions and any admission details. If a booking requirement or price isn’t listed, message Julio before you go so you know what to expect.
