How do you search for new deal for your team?

Hi all.

I am currently a first-year corporate finance analyst at an investment bank in a country in Asia. I would like to get some opinions or suggestions on how do I contribute to my department in terms of looking for deals. Is it through reading news, meeting with people at conference, etc? Appreciate any inputs and thoughts!
