B2B Meetings - How does it work?
A matchmaking or Brokerage event is a quick and easy way to meet potential cooperation partners. People meet and greet at high speed. 20-30 minutes are usually enough to build connections. This matchmaking event will be virtual which mean that you will have your meetings online instead of on-site.
