Creating your profile on our GIG database:
In order to create a new profile: https://globalinnovationgathering.org/gig-register
Tips and Tricks to create your profile in the best way possible:
- It is very important to have a profile picture so that people can see while reading about you too.
- In the “Why are you GIG?” question we would like you to write about yourself and what would you like other members to know about you and not your organization or project. What are you passionate about? What makes you special? Why do you think you belong in GIG?
- In the “About it” question in the initiative section, we would love for you to write as much as you can and just enough text in order to briefly explain all about your organization and its highlights. It is important not to write too much or too little text.
- It would be great if you can add as many visuals as you can! Add photos of your projects, links to awesome videos of interviews or anything that's vest showcases your project!
- Not all Fields are mandatory, but we would really appreciate it if you could fill in everything.
- You can always choose who would you like each field to be visible for, you can choose between (Everyone, All Members, Only Me) It would be great if you can share everything with everyone, maybe consider your contact information if you would like it to be visible to closed community only to make it easier for you to contact each other!
After you fill in your profile it will be published on the website as soon as you are an official member!
