Question 1

⁠Is it mandatory to have my camera on?

Accepted Answer

While not always mandatory, enabling your camera helps create a more personal connection and can make conversations more engaging. If you’re uncomfortable with video, you can keep your camera off and still participate via audio.

Question 2

⁠ ⁠What if I’m shy or introverted?

Accepted Answer

Speed networking can be a great way for introverts to meet people in a structured setting. If you’re nervous, consider preparing a brief intro about yourself and some questions in advance. The short time slots can actually help reduce anxiety since each conversation is time-bound.

Question 3

How do I know if a particular speed networking event is relevant to my interests?

Accepted Answer

Check the event description or theme before registering. Many speed networking sessions are industry- or interest-specific (e.g., marketing, tech, startups). If you’re unsure, look for keywords related to your field or contact the organiser for clarification.

Question 4

How many people can I expect to meet in an hour-long session?

Accepted Answer

It varies by event, but typically each conversation lasts 3–5 minutes. This means you might meet anywhere from 10–30 people in an hour. Check the event details to see how many rounds are planned.

Question 5

⁠What if I don’t have a business or am just exploring careers?

Accepted Answer

Speed networking can still be valuable for job-seekers, students, or those exploring new industries. Being upfront about your current situation and goals (like learning or connecting with experts) often leads to helpful conversations.

Question 6

Should I use my phone or a laptop for the best experience?

Accepted Answer

A laptop or desktop typically provides the most stable experience (better video/audio quality, easier to multitask). However, many platforms also work on mobile devices. Choose whichever device offers a reliable internet connection and a functioning microphone/camera
