Hi Phiers,
2022 has been incredibly busy, challenging, inspiring and rewarding for us here at Let’s Phi. We worked very hard to provide you with the best service possible and seeing and connecting with you at our events has been very inspiring.
Some numbers#
- We are now a global community of 1900+ members. You, our community members, tune in from all over Europe, America, India and more. In 2022 alone our subscribers count increased by 27.6%! Thanks for liking, sharing and commenting on our posts, as well as attending our events.
- We hosted 8 online career events in 2022, where we invited industry experts who work in Ethics Consulting, Venture Capital, Web3 Research, AI Ethics and Recruitment. Amongst these experts, we had Steven Robinson, Guanlan Mao, Ravit Dotan, Federico Ast & Joshua Bucheli.
- Our team expanded this year and we started collaborating with some of our community members on different projects & content, such as blog posts, mentor acquisition and research interviews. This year we welcomed Ismael Kherroubi Garcia and Jennifer Waters as Writers & Content Creators, and Mathilde Leon as a Writer & Researcher.
- In 2022 we helped over 20 people who reached out to find mentors and career opportunities. Some of the things they say about our work: “Let’s Phi has been a beacon of encouragement and a source of support for me, as I look to transition out of academia”; “Joining Let’s Phi’s event with Federico Ast helped me find my career path by showing the intersection amongst Philosophy, Economics, and Web3”.
We are proud to show philosophers how to put their skills to good use, how to properly market their degrees, and how to find a fulfilling career outside academia. All this work would not be possible without your help and support, and for that, we’re very grateful.
What you can expect from us in 2023#
- More online career events! We want to invite loads of experts in Ethics, Consulting, VC, Web3 and more. If you’d like to connect with someone, in particular, reach out on LinkedIn. We’d be very happy to hear your suggestions in terms of speakers to invite.
- One-on-one chats with our team members where you can ask for advice and tips on career paths, opportunities, job search, job interviews and so forth. If you’d like personalised and tailored advice for your career journey, message us on LinkedIn anytime. We’re happy to help.
- A mentorship programme. In 2022, we started working on speaker acquisition to build a small, tailored mentorship programme, where we can match philosophy students/grads with mentors in their chosen field of work. We hope to launch this scheme in the next year.
- More content & collaboration. Expect more blog posts, articles and career-related content from us. If you want to collaborate with us on this, reach out!
Thank you for all your support! We’re looking forward to interacting more with you in 2023. We wish you happy holidays if you celebrate.
Best,
The Let’s Phi Team x
