On Monday, July 8, 2024, we held our BeNA Guru Talk on “Networking in Academia” from 5:00-6:30 pm at the Elinor Ostrom Room, DIW Berlin. The event featured a panel discussion aimed at helping PhD students and postdocs improve their academic networking skills.
Our panelists were:
- Cara Ebert (RWI Essen)
- Shushan Margaryan (University of Potsdam)
- Felix Weinhardt (European University Viadrina)
The discussion was moderated by Felix Degenhardt (University of Potsdam) and covered topics such as building a good academic network, the importance of networking, and strategies for meeting speakers, contacting professors, and engaging with peers. The panel also shared tips on making the most of conferences and workshops.

Thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to the event’s success. We look forward to seeing you at future BeNA Guru Talks.
