Mentoring Event
Dear attendees of CHI PLAY 2023 – and, especially, dear PhD researchers and post-doctoral researchers: We want to offer you an opportunity for more structured networking as part of CHI PLAY 2023, and connect those of you at the same career stage with peers, as well as more senior mentors who have kindly agreed to give their time.
For in-person attendees, we will offer a mentoring lunch on Wednesday, October 11, during which mentors (typically a more senior member of our community) will be matched with one or two more conference attendees at earlier career stages. Lunch boxes will be provided at the venue, and you can either sit together there, or go for a walk.
For online attendees, we will offer a mentoring match-up, for which you will likewise be matched with one or two conference attendees at your career stage and a more senior mentor. It is up to you and the other participants to find a suitable time for this event – we will put you in touch with each other, and you’ll have to take it away from there. In this way, we hope to accommodate different time zones.
In the form below, you can register, and tell us a bit more about the kinds of conversations you would be interested in – the more you tell us about yourselves and what you would like to get out of this event, the better our opportunity to match you with suitable attendees. Please indicate your interest by Monday October 2, 2023.
For those of you who are more seasoned, please join us and pass on your tips, advice, and stories – especially those that you wish you had heard earlier in your careers.
Do you have any questions? Please reach out to gc@chiplay.acm.org before Monday October 2, 2023.
Please note that you must be registered for CHI PLAY 2023 to be able to take part in this event. Thank you!
