Gamifying networking: CFA Society India, Chennai Chapter
Trade the awkward introduction for a board game banter. CFA Society India, Chennai Chapter is hosting a networking event at Gameopolis, T Nagar.
Why board games make for better networking
A name tag and a handshake only get you so far. Put people around a board game and something different happens. Someone makes a bold move, someone else calls them out for it, and within ten minutes you know more about the person than an hour of small talk would have told you.
What to expect:
- A relaxed setting where the point is to actually meet people, not just collect a few more names for the contact list
- Easier openings. A game gives you something to talk about before you even get to “so what do you do.” Board games set up for every kind of player, no prior experience needed.
- Faster camaraderie. Win, lose, or watch someone’s strategy collapse mid-game, you walk away remembering the person, not just their name.
Connections that stick. The people you meet across a game table tend to stay more memorable than the ones you meet across a stack of business Cards
