You're attending an industry event. How can you maximize your networking opportunities in Venture Capital?
I absolutely love connecting people with other people, so when I'm at events, not only am I actively listening to what others have to say, I always open the conversation from 1:1 to 1 to many. It's great to hear other people's perspective about a topic and it also allows people who are a little more introverted to feel included in the conversation. I also like to make a few intro's IRL to folks I already met at the event.

You're attending an industry event. How can you maximize your networking opportunities in Venture Capital?
Before heading to a conference, event or workshop, if it's available to you, take a look at the attendee list and do your homework. You don't need to memorize everyone that's attending and what they do but of the list, select a few you really want to get in front of and cold DM them on LinkedIn ahead of time. That way if you don't end up meeting at the event itself, there's a connection for you to lean on after or you can coordinate a time to meet there.
