Once the event organizer starts the "Speed Networking session", the participants will be pushed towards the networking session and asked to connect with other participants.


All the participants will get matched one-on-one for quick conversations with other participants.



Note: During the Networking session, participants won't be able to connect with each other on Virtual tables and would be pushed to join the networking session.

  • On joining, you will be matched with the next available participant. 
  • You will see a flashing 30-second timer when the current meeting is about to end (You can surely opt for a 2-minute extender as well).
  • Use the chat box to exchange contact details.
  • After the meeting, you will be matched with the next available participant.





6. Points to keep in mind

  • The event organizers can only start and stop the networking session.
