Early Careers Network

AGI Early Careers Network Update

AGI GeoCom 2024
After another successful year for the Early Careers Network, it was great to round off the year with a fantastic networking event at GeoCom 2024. Members of the Early Careers Network committee hosted and facilitated a lunchtime networking session, bringing together members of the geo community.  The event encouraged early careers professionals to widen their networks and build connections.

Experienced professionals, such as speakers, award winners, CEOs, and presidents, took the opportunity during their break to engage in interesting conversations with early careers professionals.  After several years of virtual events, it was wonderful to experience this collaboration in the stunning setting of the Map Room at the Royal Geographical Society!

Committee members also had the opportunity to discuss future events with organisations who are keen to reach young professionals.  Keep an eye out for details in the new year about in person and remote events. And of course, the highlight of an in-person event was the chance to enjoy some informal ‘geo-drinks’ afterwards!
