Networking
Benchmark Week 2024 will allow you to kick-start new business and investment opportunities with fellow delegates, speakers and sponsors during the many networking functions we have planned over the three day event.
The Benchmark Week 2024 Networking App is now live, designed to make it even easier to connect with fellow attendees.
With the app, you’ll be able to:
- Browse the full list of registered attendees, including names, job titles, and companies.
- Request meetings at a time that suits you during the event, with dedicated tables in our Meeting Area or at exhibitor’s tables.
- Start conversations or make introductions using the messaging feature.
- Build your personalised schedule by selecting the conference sessions you’d like to attend.
- Connect with sponsors and exhibitors to learn more about their products and services.
- Complete your profile with a photo, making it easier for others to find you at the event.
- Invite others to join any confirmed meeting, so that you are not limited to 121s.
New Feature:
You can now sync your app meetings to your personal calendar.
Step 1: Log in and Build Your Profile
After your registration has been approved, you will receive information on where the Networking App can be accessed on your browser or downloaded onto your phone. Downloading the event mobile app provides the best experience.
Once you have set a password through the 'forgot password' function you can log in and begin building your profile.
Accessing your profile through the top right button, you will be able to update your personal information and choose a company type - this will enhance the ability for people to narrow their search to find you.
Step 2: View Attendees and Book Meetings
Browse the attendee list by name, company or country using the 'Schedule Meetings' button on the dashboard. You can also filter the list and attach notes on other attendees.
To book a meeting, select the desired attendee and you will be able to select a meeting time slot within the conference dates. Once the other person accepts one time slot you will be allocated a table in the Meetings Area onsite. If you book a meeting with a conference exhibitor, the meeting will be held at their booth.
All your meetings and assigned tables will be shown under My Agenda. Our team will be onsite to direct and support you.
A push notification and email will notify you of any meetings or messages.
Pending or cancelled meetings - make sure you haven’t left any pending meetings unanswered; you can view these under 'Meeting Management.'
To view your scheduled meetings, from the dashboard you can access 'my agenda' which will show your meetings, who with and the location all in one place.
Step 3: Start messaging and building connections!
Messaging is an easy way to introduce yourself to fellow attendees.
If you message a fellow attendee or request a meeting via the platform, a push notification will be sent, followed by an email.
All of this is done to increase engagement and help you make the most of your time onsite by selecting the sessions you want to attend and organising 1:1 meetings with other industry professionals.
