Following a highly successful first edition (Next Generation Cartographers: ICC 2025 MentorMatch), MentorMatch is coming to a new location for its second round. This interactive mentoring and networking workshop connects aspiring cartographers with experienced mentors through a series of dynamic exchange formats, including speed-mentoring conversations and open-question sessions. Participants will have the chance to discuss career paths, project management, publishing strategies, conference presentations, and personal research visibility. Whether you are seeking practical advice, constructive feedback, or new professional connections, MentorMatch is designed to help you advance your ideas and career. Pre-registration is required to support tailored mentor–mentee matching; registration information and deadlines will be shared soon.
