im working as a legal intern (graduated law school) right now doing work ip/copyright work with particular interest in video games/gaming industry. my only background in this area is that i just play a **** ton of video games (or used to) and keep pretty current with its news. i have no schooling background in ip law nor do i have any engineering/science background, but i do have a genuine interest and passion for this particular area.
im heading to a conference tomorrow alone (nygamesconference.com) as a "reward" for all of my hard work this summer because my boss thought this would be a good opportunity for me to network and learn about more legal issues in the area.
this is sad, but ive never really networked like this before and have no idea what to do. im not a complete social idiot, but can come off as aloof and awkward, especially when it comes to talking to strangers in this setting.
so what are your tips? thanks.
