ACTION LAYER / SIOP 2027 PILOT

Good conversations shouldn’t happen by chance.

Meet SIOP attendees through shared interests and overlapping schedules. We’re testing thoughtful introductions over coffee, happy hours, and dinner, so it’s easier to find your people at the conference.

Share your interests in our short pilot form. We’ll follow up with details before you decide to join.

WHY TAKE PART

A few familiar faces. More meaningful conversations.

Meet people with a shared interest.

Connect around a question, challenge, or topic you actually want to explore.

Make room for connection.

Find a conversation that fits between sessions, without starting from a room full of strangers.

Help shape what comes next.

Your feedback will help us improve the introductions and decide what to build.

Three ways to connect.

01 / COFFEE

A conversation that fits.

A one-to-one introduction around shared interests and a time that works for both of you.

02 / HAPPY HOUR

A few new familiar faces.

A small group to compare notes and unwind. Come for the conversation; drinks are optional.

03 / DINNER

More time to connect.

A small table of fellow attendees, with room to go beyond the usual introductions.

SMALL PILOT. PERSONAL INTRODUCTIONS.

How the pilot works.

1. Express interest.

Tell us you’re interested in the SIOP pilot. Practitioners, researchers, and students across career stages are welcome.

2. Share interests and availability.

Closer to the conference, we’ll use these to personally arrange introductions and suggest a meetup that fits.

3. Meet and share feedback.

Try a meetup and tell us what felt useful, what felt awkward, and whether you’d do it again.

Be part of the first group.

We’re gathering interest for a small SIOP 2027 beta. You don’t need to test software or attend every gathering. Bring your curiosity, make time for a conversation, and help us learn.

Expressing interest does not reserve a place or book a meetup. We’ll share the format, timing, and any costs before you commit.

A few things to know.

Is this an app I can use now?

Not yet. We’re starting with personally arranged introductions to learn what makes the experience useful before building it out.

What will it cost?

Any participation fees and food or drink costs will be shared before you commit. Expressing interest creates no payment obligation.

Is this an official SIOP program?

No. This is an independent Action Layer pilot for SIOP attendees.

ABOUT ACTION LAYER

Turn insight into action.

Action Layer helps bridge the gap between a useful insight and a meaningful next step. This pilot puts that idea into practice: turning shared interests into real conversations and connections.
