How to Connect with Others

    • Use the “Networking & Meetings” and “Virtual Booths/Meet Exhibitors” sections to find other people to network and connect with.
    • Search for a specific individual by typing their name, title or company into the search bar on the left-hand side.
    • Add keywords and criteria on the left-hand side to enhance the matchmaking algorithum that suggests people you should meet!
      • On the left-hand side, use the filters to explore individuals you want to meet based on job function, skills/interest and related categories.
  3. Click on the name of the individual you want to connect with to see that person's profile and meeting availability.
  4. We encourage you to write a message before sending your connection request to introduce yourself and explain the reason you're looking to connect.
  5. Then click “Send Connection Request."
Tip: Everyone is accessible through the "People" tab. Connect with delegates, exhibitor members, speakers and event staff! You can filter by a participant's job title, secondary job title, and skills!

How to Ask for a Meeting

  2. On the left-hand side, use the criteria filter to specify the position of the individuals you want to meet with.
  3. Click on the name of the individual you want to meet with to see their profile and meeting availability.
  4. Click on one of the proposed time slots.
  5. After selecting a time slot, you'll be able to write a message to the person you want to meet. Let them know why you're interested in speaking more with them!

  7. You will be redirected back to that person's profile and will see that your meeting request is pending.
