Networking and Outreach Group wrap up for 2025

Hiiiiiiii everyone,

grogu-happy-new-year

As we’re wrapping up the year, we wanted to share what we’ve been doing this year as the Networking and Outreach group. Me & @Vidash are the co-leads for this term and this group was an excuse for me to meet her and all the other awesome group members, so first and foremost, I’m thankful for that selfishly. I’m not gonna bombard you with yet another introduction ( What are you currently working on? Let us all know! - #2 by ecebayram ) but I wanted to start the thread to share about what’s been happening in our group.

We’ve been trying to bring in the in-person networking adventures by meeting up at conferences:

We recently had our small gathering at the MDS conference thanks to @hirotaka & @Vidash and we would love to hear about the conferences you think might be worthwhile to pull some in person catch up!

The brainchild of the lovely @Vidash we’re planning to start the Knowing Me, Knowing You effort in 2026. If you want to find out and check it out:

We’ve also been trying to spread the word about the platform, and always open for tips on how you’d like to see more networking and outreach efforts for the platform. Share with us!

Yes as @ecebayram mentioned, as a taskforce we need to hear back from the community about conferences and also about more ways to connect with each other to draw from our individual experiences.

please do take the Knowing me,knowing you survey to make it a success

Happy holidays everyone :smiling_face:
