How does it work? - Booking of meetings, on-site meetings & 1:1 video calls

LOCATION for on-site meetings Recharge 3.2, Halle 3.2

A matchmaking or networking event is a quick and easy way to meet potential cooperation partners in face-2-face talks. 20 minutes run fast but it is enough to build first connections before the bell rings and the next talk starts.

1:1 meetings | Facts

  • 1:1 meetings can be requested between 1 March and 26 April 2023
  • Meeting requests must be accepted to be scheduled
  • Meetings will take place on-site (26 April) and are managed online via 1:1 video calls (18-28 April).

    1) Online registration

    • Register via the green button "Register now"
    • Add contact and organisation details as requested
    • Compose your personal event schedule by selecting the sessions of your choice
    • Those who are interested to take part in 1:1 meetings MUST select at least one networking session

    2) Make yourself visible through an outstanding business profile

    COMPANY PROFILE

    Take advantage of the opportunity and introduce your company by publishing a clear profile. The more detail such as company background, business offers and interests you provide, the more you will benefit from the matchmaking tool. Your co-operation profile is your online business card.

    MARKET PLACE

    • Explain the product/project/technology/expertise you are offering or looking for 
      by creating "Market Place Items"
    • Specify the type of partner you are looking for
    • With its filtering option the "Market Place" makes it easier to find interesting profiles
    • A meaningful profile will generate significantly more meeting requests


    3) How to manage bilateral meetings?

    The booking of meetings opens on Wednesday, 1 March 2022.

    BOOKING OF MEETINGS

    • Browse the list of attendees or check the marketplace profiles
    • Use the optional filters to easily find the ones aligned with your goals
    • Send meeting requests to those companies/persons you want to meet
    • Adding a short reason why you are interested in a meeting will increase the acceptance
    • Meeting requests must be confirmed by the recipients to be scheduled
    • Date and time of a meeting is scheduled by the person accepting the meeting request considering the mutual availability
    • Check every incoming meeting request and accept or refuse if not appropriate. It is a matter of politeness to let the requester know if you are interested in a meeting or not.

    SOME PARTICIPANTS CAN’T BE BOOKED. WHY?

    Participants available for meeting requests are indicated by a green button “Available”, otherwise:

    • You may not have registered for 1:1 meetings

    FAQs

    How do I join a scheduled meeting?

    • You can access your meeting schedule via menu "Meetings" in the top right corner.
    • Click the green button "Start meeting" next to your meetings to join the 1:1 meeting video call

    What options do I have if the meeting partner does not show up timely?

    • Quick reminder to join the video call
      Send a message (or phone call) and alert your meeting partner to join the missed Video call. This should work well if enough time is left over (e.g. 15+ min) for this scheduled meeting.
    • Re-schedule the meeting
      In case your meeting partner doesn’t react immediately on a reminder as indicated above you should re-schedule and postpone the meeting by 1-2 hours.
    • If a meeting can not be managed at the event date itself please use the chat messaging system (open the meeting partners profile) to schedule a phone call or meeting outside this platform

    What if my camera or microphone does not work?

    • Please check that your browser doesn't blocks the usage of your camera/microphone due to security reasons.
      Check by having a video call with some of your colleagues in another tool (Google Meet, Zoom, ...)
    • Depending on your browser settings you may be asked to confirm the activation of the camera / microphone through a pop-up dialog form.
    • How to enable the use of microphone/camera in your browser?
      * Chrome: click here
      * Firefox: click here
      * Opera: click here
