Following the great success of 2020, this year MUSE GRIDS was invited again to organise a networking event as part of the annual BRIDGE General Assembly.

Due to the current sanitary conditions, the 2021 event took place virtually on Wednesday 3^rd of March. However, the digital nature of the event did not prevent the organisers (Glen Dimplex Heating & Ventilation, EASE and RINA Consulting) from proposing some of the networking activities which proved a great success last year.

After few icebreaker questions, a networking bingo session took place. Attendees were asked to complete their bingo cards by posing a series of questions to the other participants. This year, though, instead of walking around a conference hall in Brussels, players interacted with their peers by moving from one Zoom breakout room to another.

After announcing the bingo winner, attendees had the possibility to carry on their networking activities divided into small groups within different virtual rooms. Despite the unavoidable absence of the tactile pleasures of in-person gatherings, this did not preclude the event from once again representing a fun and informal frame for the BRIDGE General Assembly.
