What to do between accepting the offer and starting as a summer analyst?

Recently accepted my summer analyst role for 2021 - I was wondering if there are any productive things to do between now and starting as an intern. I like reading and will still try to keep learning / stay on top of news, but are there any skills I should have down to start off on a high note? Is it normal to introduce myself to other analysts that I haven't met yet (it's a smaller boutique so everyone works together)? Or just chill out and enjoy life. Thanks y'all
