Networking

EN

Networking can be stressful - especially at the beginning of your career or when you don't consider yourself a natural extrovert. But does building relationships really have to work that way? During this talk, Christopher Hamilton will share his experience from nearly 20 years in the games industry. He'll talk about how authentic relationships, community involvement, volunteering, and simple curiosity about the world can open up entirely new professional opportunities. If you want to look at networking from a different perspective and learn how to build meaningful connections without artificial formulas, don't miss this talk! 🤝🎮
