Networking sessions are interactive gatherings of stakeholders interested in the same or a similar issue on Internet governance. Their open (in the case of face-to-face events - open-seating) formats are spontaneous and can serve as icebreakers, prompting quicker ways for people to get to know each other. Networking sessions are also a suitable session type for social gatherings, or for gatherings of people and organizations from a particular region, stakeholder group, or area of activity.

This sessions type can also be suitable for award ceremonies.
