As you build your post-military career and network, consider whether taking an open networking approach works for you. Let’s look at the pros and cons.

Higher name recognition with contacts who otherwise might not be able to connect with you. A greater number of connections on social media, which can drive the impression that you’re more popular and influential. People who love the open concept of networking claim that the more people you know, the more potential connections to opportunities that arise. They are less discerning about who they connect with and what they know about that individual, than the quantity…

H1, a tech platform hosting healthcare provider profiles for life science customers, has acquired Portland, Oregon-based Carevoyance to fuel a push into the medical device space. The deal closed in late July and ran the New York City-based company seven figures in cash and stock, Ariel Katz, co-founder and CEO of H1, told Fierce Healthcare. All six of Carevoyance’s employees will be retained, and the company will operate as an independent subsidiary. Katz said there is no shortage of parallels between the two companies, both in terms of culture and product. H1, for instance, acts as a “LinkedIn for healthcare,” collecting comprehensive profiles on 10 million healthcare professionals and thousands of worldwide institutions. These data—regularly kept up to date by the company’s data team and other physician users—can give life science companies seeking out key opinion leaders or potential clinical trial sites information on a provider’s research portfolio, patient mix, social media activity and more. RELATED: Health tech startup H1 lands $58M series B to build out 'LinkedIn for healthcare' Carevoyance, meanwhile, has built a similar healthcare provider data collection tool for medical device companies looking to craft a targeted sales strategy.

Black creative advertising executives are speaking out against LinkedIn after several shared experiences of having their posts centered on diversity and anti-racism removed from the platform without warning. Conversations about LinkedIn censoring and demoting such posts surfaced two weeks ago when VMLY&R executive creative director of experience design, Walter Geer, shared his experience with a post about “uplifting Black voices” being removed from the platform. Geer was able to re-create the post several days after he complained about the issue to LinkedIn Help. At the time, LinkedIn Help replied that the post, which contained a video and expressed discontent with having to “beg” for DE&I numbers from advertising agencies, was removed due to a bug with uploading videos to the platform. LinkedIn Help also noted that it does not censor posts and only acts in response to community guideline violations.In an interview with Campaign US, Paul Rockwell, head of trust and safety at LinkedIn, reiterated that LinkedIn “would never censor important conversations regarding equity on LinkedIn and removes content only when it violates  professional community policies.” But soon after Geer was able to repost his message, it began to pick up steam, warranting dozens of comments from other ad industry professionals of color…
