What if I am attending alone?

Many people attending AI+IM Forum Europe will be attending alone, which is why the Networking Dinner is so important.

We understand that if you are attending an event on your own, it can sometimes feel daunting. Whether you arrive solo or have convinced your colleagues to join you too, the Networking Dinner provides an inclusive environment for all. So don’t worry – you will be seated alongside those with similar interests, using information collected on your event registration.

Christopher Barrat will be there to build your confidence through subtle structured networking activities and casual conversations over a three-course dinner. You’ll have a chance to expand your network, exchange perspectives, and explore potential collaborative opportunities. Effective networking is not just about exchanging business cards; it’s about building genuine connections and rapport with others.

We encourage all attendees to embrace this opportunity in this welcoming atmosphere, step out of their comfort zones and seize the potential for professional advancement and personal growth whilst chuckling to some of Christopher’s anecdotes.
