| | EA Business Networking Thread | | Several of the EA-ers know each other IRL already, but many of us have not had the opportunity to meet. Meet and Greet is essential in business. EA is such an unusual place in that everyone truly seems to get along and have a sense of community, that I thought I'd put up a "Networking Thread".
The purpose? Tell us a little about what you do (whether you are an employee in someone else's company or a consultant / freelancer on your own - every one needs a great contact in just about every industry now and then...).
This is the internet, so I'd save actual contact info for PMs, just to be cautious.
Even if we already know what you do, we'd love to see your blurb here. |
