How it works

Registration

• Register via the green button "Register now"

• Select your sessions. Here you can indicate the days when you will be available to virtually meet other participants

Please be aware that in order to meet someone at the event, you must have indicated at least one common session. It is therefore recommended to select as many sessions as possible.

Set up a company profile (during registration)

• Create a short description of your company. (Working language is English)

By choosing keywords you can specify the product categories your company works in.

Set up marketplace entries

• Create marketplace opportunities.

As a buyer, add a „request“ to let the exporters know what you are looking for.

As an exporter, add a „product“ to let the buyers know what you can offer.

You can add several product offers or requests. The more detailed your entries are the more suitable meeting requests you will receive.

Request meetings

• Browse the list of participants or check the marketplace profiles
• Use the optional filters to easily find companies with the profile that you are looking for
• Send meeting requests to those companies/persons you want to meet
• Buyers can only send requests to sellers/exporters and exporters can only send requests to buyers
• Adding a short reason why you are interested in a meeting will increase the acceptance
  
• Meeting requests should be accepted or declined. Only meetings that are accepted will be scheduled.
• The person who is invited to a meeting may choose a timeslot for the meeting when accepting it. By default, the B2Match system will suggest the earliest available common timeslot. However, any other common timeslot offered by the system can be chosen.

Last but not least: Do not only wait for others to request meetings with you but browse the marketplace and participants list and book meetings actively yourself.

During the event

• Check the latest version of your meeting schedule again through the platform (under "Meetings"). Due to last-minute changes, it might have changed slightly.
• Access the web platform and be online around 5-10 minutes before your meetings start
• Respect the other participants' time and show up to all your meetings.
  • If an unforeseen circumstance arises and you will not attend a meeting, please send a message explaining and cancel or reschedule your meetings through the platform. This way, the other participant will be notified.
• Close your video call meetings timely, as you or your meeting partner can have a subsequent meeting right after. A watch is indicating the remaining meeting time.
