Feel free to leave a message, say hello, or arrange a meeting. Any meetings you set up will conveniently appear in "My Agenda," right next to the Event Chat, ensuring you don't miss any opportunities to connect.
Company Meet & Greet Sessions
A meet-and-greet is a 30-minute session that includes insights sharing, discussions with experts, audience Q&As, and potential hiring opportunities. These gatherings facilitate genuine conversations, making them beneficial during the hiring process, and are great for fostering connections among professionals.
Networking
Networking Area is designed to facilitate meaningful connections. To balance attending sessions and networking, we recommend joining the networking area during dedicated networking breaks. But of course you can join any time to explore and network.
In the Networking feature, once you click the "Join Now" button, the system looks for another attendee who has also signaled their readiness.
If a match is found, you are immediately connected for a video chat session that lasts for a duration predetermined by the event organizer. You'll notice a timer at the top of your screen counting down the remaining time. Once the timer reaches zero, the meeting automatically concludes, allowing you to join new sessions or take another networking break.
