Connecting Generations - Networking game
Connecting Generations – A networking game for Scientists!
Networking goes next-level with Connecting Generations! This game is a unique opportunity for experienced scientists to connect with enthusiastic students, share insights and inspire the next generation. On the other side, students get the chance to engage with top scientists, learn from their experiences and exchange ideas. A bonus for students: they have the chance to win an exciting prize—all while making real connections.
The Game Plan:
- Spot the experienced scientists – Scientists who are in the game will have a colored dot on their conference badge. That’s your signal to start a conversation!
- Talk First, Collect Later – Each experienced scientist has a unique card with their portrait, career insights and fun questions to kick off a great discussion. But here’s the catch: you have to actually talk, do not only ask for the card.
- Build Your Collection – The more conversations you have, the more cards you collect.
- Win Big – On the last day of the annual meeting, the students with the most cards wins a prize!
This is your chance to break the ice, get inspired and make career-changing connections in a fun and informal way.

Wine & Science
Sept 24, 19:00-22:00
The ÖGMBT Annual Meeting is also famous for its “Wine & Science” reception (Wednesday evening, September 24), which is included in the registration fee. This welcome reception is held within the industry exhibition area. The exhibitors bring along wine for tasting with the participants and ÖGMBT takes care of cheese and desserts. There are many wine specialties to taste and we have already counted at one of the tastings about 120 different varieties - but don't worry, there are also non-alcoholic offers ;-) Just join and enjoy the networking!
Further Social Events will be announced in due time

The industry exhibition will showcase companies and institutions presenting their products & services for the life sciences community.
Exhibitor Quiz
All meeting attendees can take part in the exhibitor quiz and win prizes. Each participating exhibitor prepared a question and the correct answer can be found at their respective booth confirming. Only quiz sheets with all the correct answers and stamps from every participating booth will be taking into consideration for the lottery drawing of the prizes sponsored by the exhibitors. On Friday, Sept 26, there will be two prize drawings:
- The first drawing of the less valuable prizes will take place during the last lunch break
- The three winners of the main quiz prizes will be awarded during the closing ceremony
