There's normally a reception after the first full day of any face-to-face conference, where attendees can stand around those tall tables with a plate full of food and meet one another. We will be using breakout rooms in the main plenary zoom room as an attempt to recreate the experience -- participants will be placed into rooms of 3 people to talk to one another for 10 minutes, then be shuffled into another room to meet (hopefully) someone else, etc. This "speed networking" gives us all a chance to meet people we normally wouldn't have met!
