The speakers discussed how online networking and platforms such as LinkedIn and ADPlist can be great resources for finding mentors and connecting with other professionals in your field. They also talked about the benefits of virtual mentorship, such as the flexibility it offers and the ability to connect with mentors from anywhere in the world.
