We are introducing a powerful new feature designed to supercharge your events: Hosted Buyer Meetings!

Whether you’re running a Hosted Buyer event or aiming to deliver premium meeting services to your top exhibitors, this new capability makes it easier than ever to deliver curated, high-value meetings between buyers and sellers—all with measurable ROI and enhanced engagement for everyone involved.

This new Hosted Buyer feature is all about making your event more efficient, engaging, and results-driven. With a smart, homemade matching engine at its core, it automatically creates 1-on-1 meetings tailored to your rules—ensuring that the right people connect at the right time. You have complete control over the setup, from time slots and meeting locations to selection rules, filters, and participant profile fields, allowing you to fully customize the experience to suit your event’s needs. The participant journey is seamless too—they can easily indicate who they must meet, would like to meet, or prefer not to meet, making the matchmaking process intuitive and personalized. This curated approach not only boosts engagement and attendance but also leads to more meaningful interactions. And when the event wraps up, you’ll have access to clear, actionable insights so you can measure ROI, track which meetings actually took place, and ensure your stakeholders saw real value.

🛠️ How It Works

1. Set It Up in the Studio
   Head to your Studio and configure your Hosted Buyer settings:

   • Define participant groups (e.g., buyers and sellers)
   • Choose a name, icon, and filters for the meeting page
   • Select profile fields and group matching rules
   • Set the number of meetings per participant and how many selections they're allowed
   • Schedule your selection window (start/end dates)
   • Pick available time slots and meeting location

2. Participants Make Their Selections
   When the selection phase begins, participants receive an email with a link to their selection page. They can classify others into:

   • Must meet: absolutely want to meet
   • Nice to meet: would like to meet
   • Exclude: prefer not to meet
   • You decide how many choices each participant can make—and when.

3. Generate & Review Draft Meetings
   Once the selection window closes, you can review all selections and generate draft meetings—these aren’t visible to participants yet. You can:

   • Edit meeting details (time, location, status)
   • Delete or reassign meetings
   • Ensure everything looks perfect

4. Publish & Go Live
   Confirm the meetings, and voilà! They appear directly in each participant’s schedule. From there, they can:

   • Join
   • Reschedule
   • Decline
   • Or add extra participants
5. Measure Success
   After the event, track which meetings actually took place to ensure your stakeholders got the value they expected.

This feature is your new secret weapon for high-impact events. Whether you're running buyer-seller meetups, investor pitches, or curated networking sessions, Hosted Buyer Meetings will help you create smarter connections, happier attendees and exhibitors, and more successful events.
