Elevate Your Connections: Networking Tips and Your Free Expo Pass!

Networking is more than just meeting new people—it’s about forming connections that truly matter, which can sometimes feel challenging. You might have experienced this at busy events, where a sea of people creates pressure to make a memorable impression. How do you move past small talk to spark a genuine connection? And how do you ensure your interactions stand out? 


🏆  Networking can be a game-changer for your career— did you know that nearly 80% of professionals credit their job opportunities to networking? (LinkedIn, 2017). GoTech World is perfect for this!


 💯 Get your Free Expo Pass, you’ll gain access to the exhibition

The place where you can connect with over 100 exhibitors and network with more than 15,000 professionals. 

👇 So, how can you make the most of your networking opportunities? Here are four strategies to help you at GoTech World: 


 🎯 Define Your Purpose  


Before stepping into the vibrant environment of GoTech World, take a moment to think about what you hope to gain. Are you looking to discover potential partners, gain insights into industry trends, or connect with influential figures? By setting specific intentions before networking, you’re much more likely to meet people who align with your objectives (University of Oxford, 2019). 


🧏🏻♀️  Listen as Much as You Speak 


Building connections isn’t just about promoting yourself. Adopt a “listen-first” approach: ask open-ended questions about their projects or insights and respond thoughtfully. For example, during your conversations at GoTech World, you might ask someone how they see marketing strategies evolving in a digital-first world, then relate it to your experiences in adapting campaigns for online platforms. 


🔎  Use Body Language to Your Advantage


First impressions are powerful, and your body language can set the tone before you even say a word. At GoTech World, where the atmosphere is high-energy, simple nonverbal cues—like a warm smile, consistent eye contact, and an open posture—can make others feel comfortable approaching you. In fact, 77% of people prefer in-person networking because it allows them to read nonverbal cues, significantly enhancing interaction (Novoresume). 


✉  Follow Up Thoughtfully ️

 

Good networking doesn’t end when you walk out the door. When you exchange business cards, don’t let that be the end of your interaction. A thoughtful follow-up email referencing a specific topic from your conversation can go a long way. For instance, if you discussed the impact of cybersecurity measures on business operations during a session at GoTech World, you might say, “It was great chatting about cybersecurity strategies at GoTech World! I’d love to exchange ideas on how these measures are shaping our industry.”.

If you reach out within 24 hours after meeting someone, you’re more likely to keep that connection strong. A quick follow-up can really make a difference!
