In November, our company’s bar – Le Temps Perdu – hosted a series of speed networking sessions. Even though this was our second edition, there was plenty of unexplored territory. Ours is a continuously growing company and new people are always joining our team. The sessions were a good opportunity for some employees to meet each other for the first time and for others – to create a deeper connection with fellow Devaiders. Networking is a love-hate relationship for a lot of people. Some find it daunting to communicate with people in an unnatural setting. We had laid out sheets of paper with question topics that might help them keep the conversation going. Some of the session were especially difficult to conclude, since some colleagues were unable to detach from conversation – which, let’s be honest, was a very pleasant view. Days after the speed networking we’ve received positive feedback from participants, which confirmed the necessity of such events.

Here’s a photo recap of the speed networking sessions.
