Networking Unlocked: Why, How and Where

An interactive workshop on networking itself: why professional relationships matter, how to start conversations in a way that suits your personality, and where they happen, from formal events to cafés and community spaces. Two speakers. Dr Claudia Cavalluzzo, who runs Venture Café Edinburgh, talks on "The Chemistry of Connections". Aileen Carson, a neurodiversity trainer, coach and keynote speaker, covers practical approaches for different ways of thinking. Then you practise introductions, conversations and follow-ups in a low-pressure room. 18:00 to 20:00 at CodeBase on Castle Terrace, hosted by Together in Tech Edinburgh. Free, RSVP on Meetup. Why go: useful if you dread the open-networking half of every other event on this page. Best for job seekers, first-time founders and anyone in tech who'd like a friendlier way into the room.
