Welcome to SA.Connect, our latest initiative to help you meet other attendees, speakers, and volunteers you may not already know at SIGGRAPH Asia. This innovative private online community will help you network before, during, and even after the event.

With the Visual Matching Engine that helps you make smart connections based on the info provided in your profile, SA.Connect allows you to establish meaningful connections with the right people, and only with the people you want to meet.

You will also find groups and forums, and lots of other resources to make your SIGGRAPH Asia experience more fulfilling. Find that mentor you’ve been seeking, or just someone else to bounce ideas off.

Here’s how to get started:

We know you probably don’t want to join yet another social network so we’ve designed a custom online community that’s tailored just for you, the SIGGRAPH Asia community. 5 minutes is all it takes for you to complete your profile and start meeting other individuals who are attending the conference and exhibition.

Ideally, upload a photo of yourself so people will recognize you, then it’s time to explore the site and see what it can do for you.

Also, watch the introduction video to learn more about SA.Connect and how it can enhance your SIGGRAPH Asia experience.

*SA.Connect will be available for all registered attendees after Wednesday, 9 October 2013.
