Professionals in the City (commonly known as PNC) is a socializing and networking private organization based out in Washington, DC, with branches in New York City, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Boston.[1][2]

It was founded in 1999 by Michael Karlan, who serves as the incumbent president of the organization.[3] PNC has 200,000 members and hosts more than 1,000 events a year.[4][5]

History

The organization was established in 1999 in Washington D.C. by Michael Karlan, an American attorney and social entrepreneur.[1][6] From the beginning, it started as a social club for various events, including singles dinners, museum outings, wine tastings, and paintball trips.[1][7]

In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown restrictions in the United States, PNC switched to "virtual speed dating" by using video-conferencing applications such as Zoom.[8]

Organization and activities

PNC consistently organizes community events in Washington DC, Baltimore, Boston, Los Angeles, New York, and Philadelphia.[2][9] It hosts events showcasing cities' diverse offerings, including their nightlife, arts, cultural and sporting events, and neighborhoods. Many of the events have a matchmaking focus, such as speed dating.[10] The organization also hosts various local dating coaches who give seminars on general principles of dating and attraction, as well as specific topics, such as body language.[1] PNC is also known for organizing dating events for various ethnic, age and LGBT groups.[2][11]
