The Student Connection offers recent graduates of TV courses at Scotland’s universities and colleges the chance to meet face-to-face with representatives from local production, post-production and facilities companies.

Attendees will be split into small groups for ‘speed dating’ with producers, commissioners, and creatives from top production companies, broadcasters, and facilities houses. Previous graduates now working in the sector will also be on hand to share their stories.

The evening will end with time to chat informally over drinks and snacks.

Tickets are free but capacity is limited so sign up soon!
