Ice-Breaker Networking Session
Branded as “the best networking session I’ve ever attended” by a number of past Exchange delegates, this structured networking session is the ideal opportunity for you to capitalise on time out of the office by speaking to each of your peers in attendance.
How does it work?
It’s easy. You spend five minutes on one table, and when the bell rings you’ll be directed to the next one to start another round of networking. At the end of the session you’ll have met most of your peers, and if you haven’t, you can continue into the drinks reception at the end of the day.
