Speednetworking/Trivia

After months of orchestrating logistics and fiddling with the details, Golden Key Macquarie were about to hold their first Speednetworking night that would presumably end up in creating teams for the answering of academia-themed trivia. So during the lead up hours on Thursday, October 22, the executive of Golden Key Macquarie were seen rushing madly around to change the desks into a networking layout, creating a jovial ambience, laying out the free pizza and snacks and basically having a great time. But the night had yet to begin.

And when the night did start, the mingling occurred, the music played and once trivia teams were created, tables were filled and pens were at the ready. The questions were fired by the two hosts of the night and novelty rounds were interjected as a fun break between the harder questions. The novelty rounds were a big hit (as the questions were much easier!) and many points were allocated to each team, with the team aptly named 'Yeah!' winning in a very close tallied race.

Each member of the winning team was given free movie passes and the other participants were awarded goodie bags just for attending. Throughout the night, a raffle for a luggage set was held and at the end of the night, one lucky winner walked away with the prize.

And as new friends waved goodbye and exchanged contact details, the executive still working tirelessly began to clean up and breathe a sigh of relief for another successful Golden Key event.
