ABOUT US
Where it all began
The Dating Field was founded by Catharine Veenstra, the company's President & Chief
Dating Officer, in July of 2001. Prior to founding The Dating Field, Catharine
spent nine years in the high-tech industry. During that time she enjoyed organizing
corporate events and parties more than her regular day job and began the process
of a career change. After hearing about the speed dating concept and being single
herself she thought, "If I think it's a great way to meet people, others would
too".
The Dating Field's Success to Date
The incredible success of The Dating Field has come from the fact that its dedicated
team of professionals create terrific opportunities to meet new people, and they
do it better than anyone else. Plus, The Dating Field does what the Internet
alone can't - we bring people face-to-face in comfortable situations so that
they can explore real chemistry, without pressure, without risk - and we make
it easy, economical, efficient and fun!

After two solid years of experience, study and market evaluation, The Dating
Field is going to the next level.
