The informal networking groups are so helpful in networking that we will do the “speed dating†again on the 29th before we sit down for dinner and the general introductions. Briefly, these informal “dates†consist of up to 4 people and last for 5 to 10 minutes. At the end of the 10 minutes, the groups break up and new ones are formed with different participants. Suggested dialogues for your “speed dating†encounters will be provided at the registration desk in case you are at a loss for what to say during these conversations.
There will be an opportunity to circulate up to 50 copies of your resume, personal bio, leads, or other appropriate material in a handout for each participant from the dinner.
