Public Events
Speed-networking creates a structured platform for targeted business networking.
SpeedNetworker is designed around a series of structured speed-networking sessions with pre-selected, qualified contacts. Speednetworking sessions are short and swift meetings between two professionals with common interests, aimed towards the exchange of ideas, experiences and contact details.
This approach unites the efficiency and swiftness of online networking with the human factor to really connect and build the needed trust as a base to do business.
These public events attract typically over 100 participants representing a complete cross section of business sectors and types.
Qualified contacts based on participants’ requirements
Registered participants will be matched with contacts according to their networking requirements and objectives, previously stated through the registration form. That way attending networkers will focus their time and energy on those people they really want to be talking to. This is what we mean by “qualified contacts”.
One Speed-networking evening, more than twenty qualified contacts.
Each attendee will take part in structured business speed-networking sessions bringing together professionals with a likely affinity of business interests.
At the end of these intense speed-networking sessions each participant will have had some 20 qualified one-on-one meetings with other professionals pre-selected according to his or her networking requirements.
The objective of these ultra-short meetings is to establish an initial contact and to create the necessary human interaction to facilitate a possible professional collaboration.
Cool-down coctail.
Following these intensive and energising exchanges the event will conclude with a more relaxed cocktail giving a valuable opportunity for more informal networking.
At the end of the 3-hour event participants should take away some 20+ interesting and relevant business contacts - something which might otherwise take months to achieve through regular open networking activities.
