I've managed to attend zero invitation-only parties this year at NeurIPS. I think invite-only social events hinder diversity, since you need to already be an insider in order to further network with other insiders. Social events should be networking opportunities for everyone!

Social inclusion dynamics are not going to magically change if everything you do keeps reinforcing the old networks...

To be fair, a lot of
#NeurIPS2018 parties required tickets (to control numbers and avoid turning people away at the door) but not an invite from an insider. The NVIDIA, Element AI, Huawei, Borealis AI and SportLogiq parties were all on EventbriteThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
