Introducing the Asia Oceania Geosciences Society’s Match-Meet
Free of Charge – Open to All AOGS2026 Attendees
We are pleased to introduce Match-Meet at the AOGS2026 Annual Meeting—an enhanced networking and engagement initiative designed to foster meaningful connections, facilitate knowledge exchange, and support professional growth across the AOGS community.
About Match-Meet
Match-Meet expands beyond the traditional mentoring model to include three modes of participation:
  • Mentor – Share expertise and provide guidance
  • Mentee – Seek advice, insights, and career development support
  • Peer – Connect with fellow participants based on shared interests, expertise, or goals
Whether you are an experienced professional, an early-career researcher, or simply looking to build meaningful professional connections, Match-Meet offers a structured yet flexible platform to engage with the AOGS community.
