Transforming the Networking Space
Synergize isn’t just a networking organization; it’s a movement redefining what it means to connect professionally. Unlike traditional networking groups that focus on exchanging business cards, Synergize believes in building authentic friendships first. These relationships often lead to organic business opportunities, but the focus is always on creating genuine connections that transcend transactions.
“We’re building a community of givers,” said Founder Arron Stanton, “people who show up to share advice, offer support and celebrate each other’s growth. The results are transformational for both businesses and lives.”
This innovative model has allowed Synergize to thrive, creating a community of purpose-driven professionals who are committed to making an impact. Members often reflect on how the organization has enriched their lives—not just through business growth, but through the lasting relationships they’ve built along the way.
Synergize: Building Ripples of Impact
The philosophy of “Relationships Over Everything” is central to Synergize’s mission. This guiding principle extends beyond the members themselves, creating “Ripples of Impact” that touch the entire community. Victor Figlin, lifelong Synergize Member and co-founder of Indy Auto Man has truly encompassed the Relationships Over Everything model as he has embraced and grown into a relationship-forward community. Through Synergize, Figlin and Indy Auto Man have been helping families without transportation get vehicles, as well as assisting them with car insurance and gas expenses to help them get back on their feet.
Every 4:30 Meetup is paired with a local nonprofit, allowing members to give back in meaningful ways. In 2024 alone, Synergize worked with a dozen nonprofits, including Prevail Inc., Purposeful Living, and Allies Inc., helping these organizations gain visibility and support. The January Kickoff Event will feature representatives from all the nonprofits supported throughout the year, giving attendees a chance to learn more about their missions and impact.
Signature events: The Heart of Synergize
Synergize hosts two signature monthly events designed to foster authentic connections and drive impact in the community.
- The 4:30 Meetup: This casual networking event spotlights a local non-profit each month, giving them a platform to share their mission and needs with Synergize members. From financial contributions to actionable advice and valuable connections, non-profits leave these events with resources and connections that fuel their impact. Past participants include organizations like Prevail Inc., helping victims of domestic violence around Central Indiana.
- The Synergize Experience: This monthly gathering focuses on community-building and collaboration. With updates on upcoming events, new member introductions, and insider announcements, these events keep the Synergize network informed and engaged. This event is the perfect opportunity for members to bring guests for an introduction to our vibrant community, ensuring they leave inspired, connected, and ready to contribute to the ripple of impact Synergize creates.
Celebrating Six Years of Growth and Connection
Founded six years ago, Synergize began with a vision to fill a gap in professional relationships. Arron Stanton saw a disconnect between people in the workplace and was determined to create an environment where authentic relationships and aligned efforts could thrive.
Today, Synergize is a vibrant community of professionals from diverse industries, all united by a shared commitment to purpose and impact. Membership levels such as Impact, Unity, and Heritage ensure there’s a place for everyone—from young professionals to seasoned leaders—to join and grow within the community.
As part of the Six-Year Kickoff Event, Synergize will unveil a new member experience featuring updates to membership levels, event restructuring, and the addition of community groups designed to encourage both business and personal growth. These groups will focus on themes such as:
- Business Development
- Personal Health and Wellness
- Social Activities
“These community groups will deepen relationships among members while providing valuable tools for growth,” Stanton explained. “It’s all part of our mission to create a space where relationships drive real impact.”
The Power of Membership
A membership in Synergize goes beyond professional networking—it’s an invitation to build lasting connections and “do life” alongside like-minded individuals. Members gain access to exclusive perks, including:
- Social and educational community groups that encourage growth in specific areas.
- The ability to add a spouse to their membership.
- Personalized connections with other business leaders.
- A detailed biography and member directory to continue building relationships beyond events.
This relational approach has been key to Synergize’s success. By fostering an environment where members share their time, expertise, and resources, Synergize has created a network that prioritizes authenticity, generosity, and humility.
