Join your fellow attendees for informal networking and mind-melding over lunch (you bring the chow). You choose the room, and your colleagues provide the convos.
I'm new here:You’ve just joined the greatest journalism association on the planet. Come here to mingle with other first-timers.
Freelancers unite: Giving up the 9-to-5 has its unique gifts and challenges. Meet up with others who know exactly what it’s like to be your own boss.
Reporting with social media: Could your next story or podcast episode come from TikTok? Find out here!
I want to write a book. Now what?: If you’re planning to write a book—or if you have already written one and have wisdom to share—this is the room for you.
I’m just here to socialize: An agenda?! In a pandemic?! Come here if you just want to hang out with old friends and make new ones.
HOW BREAKOUT ROOMS WORK All attendees will receive links via email to the general sessions (Zoom webinar) and to networking events at lunch and in the evening (Zoom meeting). After connecting to the meeting, you'll enter a virtual waiting room. An RNA official will admit you, then assign you to the room of your choice. Like the line for the elevator, there may be a short wait to get everyone where they're going. Just hang tight, and we'll move through the list as quickly as possible.
If you want to switch rooms mid-lunch, just leave the room, and you can be assigned to a new one.
