Welcome to High Five!
OUR VISION
Back in 2018, a band of trailblazers kicked off LinkedIn Local KC. Their mission? To blur the lines between the digital and the tangible, forging genuine human connections in the heart of Kansas City.
Fast forward to 2024, and we're hitting the refresh button with a new moniker: High Five. Think of it as LinkedIn Local's edgy cousin, keeping the fire alive while adapting to the pulse of KC today.
We’re still a meetup concept with the purpose to meet as real people first and foremost. We’ll create the space to connect without the cringe and beyond just swapping business cards or reciting job titles. High Five is where authenticity reigns supreme.
Join us for a rendezvous that goes beyond the surface. It's about sparking conversations, forging bonds, and crossing paths with folks you may never bump into otherwise. Get ready to high five to the power of making connections in KC.

We firmly believe that we're stronger when we're together. By tapping into the wisdom of KC's brightest minds and passionate leaders, we cultivate a culture of continuous growth and development.

Celebration
Let's raise a toast to each other and to the incredible heartbeat of KC! As the world's spotlight shines on our community, we come together to celebrate the remarkable people and moments that make our city shine.
Community
When brilliant minds and kind hearts unite, the possibilities are endless. At High Five, we're all about harnessing that collective energy to drive positive change throughout the greater KC community.
