Promote your expertise &
Enlarge your network with in-person 1:1 meetings !
To build valuable connections and enlarge your network, use the matchmaking and book meetings at one of the Face To Face ("speed-dating") sessions: on-site from 12:30 to 13:45 or 17:00 to 18:00.
A matchmaking event is a quick and easy way to meet potential cooperation partners. 15 minutes run fast, but they are enough to build first connections before the meeting ends and the next talk starts.
