This robust platform will facilitate the exchange of information prior to the event, allowing exhibitors, sponsors, and attendees to enhance their brand visibility and personal profiles in a visually compelling and informative manner, and making them easily discoverable by fellow event attendees through the app’s powerful search functionality.
Those who download the app will get to elevate their networking experience by utilizing the appâs advanced Engagement Hub, which enables them to effortlessly identify and connect with relevant attendees, schedule 1-1 meetings by sending out meeting requests, all within the app without the need for external searches for contact details. Each attendee will have a seamless view of meeting requests sent and received, with the ability to swiftly approve or decline them based on relevance.

Moreover, registered delegates will have access to the comprehensive conference agenda, enabling them to mark their favorite sessions, seamlessly navigate the exhibition floor during the Summit using the interactive floor map, and stay updated with push notifications to ensure they never miss any important action.
App users will also have the advantage of managing their busy event schedule in one place. They will be able to edit their notification settings and benefit from automated calendar sync to ensure they never miss a conference session or important business meeting they have planned to attend. Additionally, they will receive a timely reminder email with their daily meetings schedule during each conference day, ensuring they stay organized and make the most out of their networking opportunities.
