It is what it is. First, you need to know what the people who makes decisions think about these events. Do they actually attend these events in the first place. Then you be selective on which event to attend. Unfortunately, if you want to be promoted, you have to be “visible”, and that is not limited to work. You can’t avoid politics if you want to move up.
