| + | <h2>Networking missions for Data Conference 2022: Five steps to making new connections</h2> |
| + | |
| + | <p>Along with exciting speakers sharing great ideas, meeting like-minded people who are also attending a conference makes for a great experience.</p> |
| + | |
| + | <p>In a virtual space, we don’t bump into each other while waiting in line for coffee or when viewing a kiosk together at the same time. </p> |
| + | |
| + | <p>When we’re all remote, we have to make an extra effort to meet new people. Here are some things you could try.</p> |
| + | |
| + | <h3>From 14 February to 4 March, how many connections could you make using these networking missions?<h3> |
| + | |
| + | <p>We’re hoping they’ll nudge you toward making meaningful connections and discovering the various types of work taking place across the GC that’s related to data.</p> |
