DM2009 on Facebook and LinkedIn

One comment that came up in the panel discussion today caught my attention - the participants were looking for ways to stay connected and share experiences and ideas after Development Marketplace 2009.

An easy and convenient possibility to achieve that are social networks.

Social networks are online platforms which give people the ability to register, upload personal data or content and to contact other people. The social network offers possibilities to search members, start discussions, post news articles and form groups.

We created such groups in two very popular social networks, Facebook and LinkedIn. Click on the buttons below to get redirected to our groups.

  

If you don't have an account at either of these platforms, you'll have to create one before being able to join the groups.

For Facebook:

1. Just fill in your data on the front page and click on "Sign up"
2. Confirm your email-address

For LinkedIn:

1. Fill in your data on the front page and click on "Join Now"
2. Confirm your email-address

And you're ready to go!

So if you are a participant who wants to keep in touch and carry on the conversation with fellow participants or if you are somebody interested in a project and want to get in touch with the project team, just join here.
