What's inside
From profile to scheduled business meeting
Networking is the real reason people come to your event. Converve turns it into a process you can steer, from the recommendation to the fixed appointment in the calendar.
MyMatch recommendations
Match scores based on interests, goals and categories instantly show every attendee the most relevant contacts, sorted by fit, not by chance.
Meeting matrix
The control center: for each category pair, define whether attendees can request one another, only view one another or not see one another at all. Buyer meets supplier, not competitor on competitor.
Meeting requests & slots
Request, confirm, pick a time slot, and Converve automatically builds clash-free schedules out of it, including table and room assignment.
Rich profiles
Structured attendee profiles with offer, need and categories form the data basis for every match, multilingual and GDPR-compliant.
Path 1 · Meeting requests
Attendees book their own meetings
-
Set the rules
You define categories (buyer, exhibitor, investor …) and steer in the meeting matrix which directions are allowed.
-
Match attendees
MyMatch recommends fitting contacts within your rules. Attendees send meeting requests and pick time slots.
-
The agenda takes shape
Converve schedules confirmed meetings clash-free, including table and room assignment. Every accepted request becomes a fixed appointment in the calendar.
Path 2 · Meeting Generator
Everyone starts the event with a full schedule.
Meeting requests reward the proactive: great for self-starters, but they can't promise anyone a full schedule. The Meeting Generator flips that: attendees rank who they want to meet, the algorithm turns it into clash-free schedules, and you publish guaranteed meetings.
Step 1 · Attendee app
Attendees rank who they want to meet.
Each person builds one ranked list. Tap, drag, done. No request inbox, no waiting on a reply.
- Tap “Want to meet” or “Not relevant” per contact
- Reorder by drag-and-drop to set priority
- Each card shows its rank: Priority 1, 2, 3
- MyMatch pre-sorts by relevance
Step 2 · Admin area
One click. Schedule in seconds.
You run the generator in the admin area. Availability, time conflicts, room capacity and your matching rules are handled automatically.
- Table and room assignment included automatically
- Ready as soon as the priorities are in
- Re-run any time, previous results are replaced
- No black box: same inputs, same schedule
Step 3 · Admin area
Review first, then release guaranteed meetings.
You see everything before attendees do: who has how many meetings. Tweak, re-run, and publish with one click.
- Every meeting starts hidden, nothing is live before release
- Per-attendee stats: who has how many meetings
- Tweak, re-run, then publish
Networking vs. matchmaking
An encounter is good. A planned encounter is business.
Networking thrives on chance: you strike up a conversation and see what comes of it. Matchmaking turns that around: Converve knows the offer, need and goals of every attendee and deliberately suggests the contacts where a conversation is truly worthwhile.
At an event with Converve, your attendees get both: the open atmosphere of a good networking event and the hit rate of curated matchmaking. That's how “nice to meet you” becomes a fixed appointment in the calendar.
- Open networking for spontaneous contacts
- Curated matchmaking by offer & need
- MyMatch sorts suggestions by relevance instead of chance
- Every encounter becomes a plannable, measurable 1:1 agenda
What matters
What makes good B2B matchmaking
Whether a participant list turns into real business meetings is decided in six places:
-
Data basis
Clean profiles with offer, need and categories are the foundation of every match, captured multilingually already at registration.
-
Controllability
The meeting matrix defines on a rule basis which categories can request one another, only view one another or not see one another at all.
-
Relevance
The MyMatch score sorts recommendations by fit, so everyone sees the most valuable contacts first.
-
Scheduling logic
Confirmed meetings are scheduled automatically and clash-free, including table and room assignment.
-
Guarantee
Where personal initiative alone is not enough, the Meeting Generator plans complete, clash-free agendas from attendee priorities: reviewed, then published with one click.
-
Measurability
Requests, meetings and acceptance rate show in black and white how well the networking works.
What is B2B matchmaking?
B2B matchmaking deliberately brings the right attendees together at business events, where offer meets need. Matchmaking software recommends fitting contacts and schedules 1:1 meetings; with Converve, organizers decide for themselves via the meeting matrix which encounters are possible, transparent instead of a black box.
Frequently asked questions
What sets Converve apart from black-box matching?
You see and steer the rules yourself. In the meeting matrix you define per attendee category who may request or view whom, so the matching stays transparent and fair instead of disappearing into a black box.
Does B2B matchmaking also work in an app?
Yes. Attendees use MyMatch recommendations, meeting requests and their schedule in the event website and the mobile event app, ideal for the networking moment on site.
Can we decide who is allowed to meet whom?
That is exactly the core of Converve. Via the meeting matrix you determine which category pairs can meet, so buyer meets supplier and not competitor on competitor.
What does the Meeting Generator do?
It is the second path to a meeting alongside meeting requests: attendees only rank who they want to meet. From that, the generator builds clash-free schedules including table and room assignment. You review the result in a preview and publish guaranteed meetings with one click.
How do meeting requests and the Meeting Generator differ?
With meeting requests, attendees approach each other directly and pick time slots: ideal when personal initiative is part of the format. The Meeting Generator plans complete agendas from ranked priority lists that you review and release centrally: ideal when you want to guarantee full schedules, for example in hosted buyer programs.
Which events is B2B matchmaking suited for?
For trade shows and congresses, hosted buyer programs, start-up and investor events, association gatherings as well as virtual and hybrid formats, anywhere targeted 1:1 business meetings matter.
“High-quality matching is a key success factor for our investor conference. With Converve we run the matching process in a structured, transparent and precise way, bringing exactly the right startups together with the right investors.” — Maren Breuer, Senior Relationship Manager, HTGF
