Wellington Branch Event: Speed networking
Ever felt like you wanted to talk to more people at an event, but didn’t have enough time? Or perhaps you felt uncomfortable butting into a conversation? Or wanted to talk to that one person who’s constantly surrounded by others?
Here’s your chance to network with no hard work involved!
Speed networking – just like speed dating but a lot more useful!
We’re taking the concept of speed dating and using it to share oodles of knowledge and ideas from our tech comm (and wider) world.
Pair up for 7 minutes, have a chat, then move on to your next person. Swap contact details if you want to take the conversation further. Depending on numbers, you should get at least 6 good chats out of it.
You might want to:
- scope out the current tech comm scene for new opportunities
- discuss tools you use (or want to use) or get help with them
- find out how others do things (get better ideas)
- get more info on ways of working, e.g. Agile
- look at new career areas to branch out into
- look for a potential employee.
We’ll have discussion prompters, or you can go freestyle and discuss whatever you’d like. You’ll be seated with nibbles at each station – we’re into relaxed networking.
Whether you’re looking for new opportunities, new people, or new ideas, come along!
