You can create an organization page in the registration form during the Organization Details step. In this step, you have two options: Join an existing organization or Create a new organization. Below the option to join an existing organization, you will find the option to create a new organization. When you select this option, additional organization-related fields will appear. Enter the name of your organization, select your organization type, and complete the remaining required fields. Once you have filled in all the mandatory fields, click Continue to proceed with the registration process.

There are two ways to join an existing organization: by selecting an existing organization in the registration form, or by accepting an invitation from the organization’s administrator.

Joining an existing organization in the registration form

Based on your email address, the system will recommend existing organizations you can join. Below the name of each organization, you will see the name of the organization’s administrator, which can help you decide which one is the correct match. Select the appropriate organization and click Continue to proceed with the registration process.

Joining an existing organization by accepting the invitation

Once you are invited by the organization’s administrator, click the Register for the event button in the invitation email. You will need to accept or decline the invitation. If you accept it, you will be able to continue with the registration process while skipping the Organization Details step, as you will automatically be registered under the invited organization.

Yes, you can register without an organization if the event rules allow it. In that case, the Organization Details step will be skipped in the registration form.

If, when logging in, you see the message "Your profile is waiting to be activated; until then, it is not visible to other participants," it means that the event organizers have not yet activated your profile.

If you believe your profile should already be activated, please check the Contacts page to notify the event organizers.

First, you need to indicate your availability for meetings. Your availability shows the time slots when you could be available for a meeting. It’s important to set your availability, as you won’t be able to send or receive meeting requests without doing so.

Set availability from the Meetings page

Go to the Meetings page by clicking the handshake icon in the navigation bar. In the top right corner, under your avatar, click Availability.

First, enable the option to allow meetings by toggling the button at the top of the page. Then, check the boxes next to the dates you are available for meetings. Finally, click Save to store your available time slots.

Set availability from your Dashboard

When selecting the meeting time, you will see the availability of participants; if someone is unavailable, that time slot cannot be selected.
