On 9 December 2021, the IChemE London & South-East Young Members Group hosted an online networking masterclass. This master class was led by two speakers: David Brown and Yasmin Ali, both of whom have a Chemical Engineering background and are great promoters of careers in engineering.

David and Yasmin introduced the attendants to networking concepts such as the ‘elevator pitch’ and shared a few tips for giving an appropriate impression during a professional networking event. The attendants then had an opportunity to put into practice the concepts learnt with each other, and our guests provided very valuable feedback.

The event concluded with a panel Q&A allowing the participants to gain more tips for engaging with other fellow chemical engineers for the first time and build professional networks.
