Mobility Days Boosts Virtual Event Attendee Collaboration

Efficient and Effective Event Networking

The base of the event was for attendees to network and connect. To speak with representatives from Austrian companies, research centers, universities, as well as Austrian trade commissioners.

With over a thousand participants from many different countries with varying goals, networking could have been a challenge for participants. But with the b2match event networking software, it was efficient and effective.

“The virtual event International Mobility Days was fantastic! So many of our +1.200 participants from +65 nations highlighted the excellent and easy technical usability of b2match, especially regarding the conference´s streaming and the virtual 1:1 meetings." - Mag. Beatriz Schönstein-Wippel, Global Program Manager, Aussenwirtschaft Austria Mobility

What makes networking with the b2match event software so effective is the Marketplace. Attendees register, create profiles and set up detailed rich marketplace entries. Photos, files, videos, display what the attendee is offering or looking for. That could be anything like products, services, project collaboration, etc.

Participants can then utilize smart search functions and keywords to browse other attendees marketplace entries to find their ideal business match. All they have to do is reach out over the b2match platform to propose a meeting. Before the event even begins, participants have created a personalized agenda that is filled with the opportunities they are specifically looking for.

Virtual Exhibition with Lead Retrieval

Mobility Days invited 40 Austrian exhibitors active in the fields of mobility, traffic, mobile services and technology to present their products, services, projects, patents, etc.

They knew they needed an event matchmaking platform that had a virtual exhibitor package. They wanted to offer virtual booths, hosted sessions and lead retrieval, important features to promote exhibitor success.

Exhibitors utilized the b2match virtual booth feature, which are dedicated exhibitor rooms for attendees to join impromptu and start conversations.

Conversations at a virtual booth are great, but exhibitors attend events to generate leads. That’s why the b2match platform has the lead retrieval feature, which allows exhibitors to gather virtual business cards from event participants.

Event organizers know that exhibitors can always use a promotional boost. Hosted sessions are a great way to do that. These are scheduled sessions hosted by the exhibitors where they can elaborate on their products and services to the attendees.
