How does it work?
A partnering or networking event is a quick and easy way to meet potential cooperation partners in face-2-face talks. Within 30 minutes you can build first meaningful connections before the bell rings and the next talk starts.
1) Online registration
REGISTRATION
- Register via the green button "Register now".
- Add contact, organisation details and marketplace modules as requested.
- Please note that at least one networking session must be selected.
- After your registration to the B2B event you will receive a voucher-code, that enables you to enter the B2B/Congress and Fair free of charge.
2) Make yourself visible through an outstanding business profile
COMPANY PROFILE
Take advantage of the opportunity and introduce your company by publishing a clear profile. The more detail like company background, business offers and interests you provide, the more you will benefit from the conference matchmaking tool. Your co-operation profile is your online business card.
MARKET PLACE
- Explain the product/expertise you are offering or looking for.
- High-quality profiles are visited 50 to 100 times before, during and even after the event.
- A meaningful profile will generate significantly more meeting requests
BOOKING MEETINGS
- Browse the list of participants or check the marketplace profiles.
- Use the optional filters to easily find the ones aligned with your goals.
- Send meeting requests to those companies/persons you want to meet.
- Adding a short reason why you are interested in a meeting will increase the acceptance.
- Meeting requests must be confirmed by the recipients to be scheduled.
- Typically, date and time of a meeting is scheduled by the person accepting the meeting request considering the mutual availability.
- Check every incoming meeting request and accept or refuse if not appropriate.
It is a matter of politeness to let the requester know if you are interested in a meeting or not.
