LinkedIn is known to many as a platform for job search or recruitment. But the possibilities go far beyond that: LinkedIn also serves as a tool for conveying information and knowledge, as well as for targeted networking and attracting participants for projects and offers.

In this laboratory workshop, we will focus on innovative approaches to the use of the platform and show how it can be used specifically for networking. In addition to practical impulses from La Red and the non-profit organization Kiron, which present their innovative approaches, the workshop offers space for exchange between the guests.

The Labora Workshop is organised in cooperation with La Red - Networking and Integration e.V.
