The challenge
Members expect value, not another tool.
A member event is only a success if new contacts and business come out of it. Converve turns networking into tangible member value, and delivers the numbers you can show your board.
Connect members with purpose
The meeting matrix brings the right members, sectors and regions together, so relevant conversations replace random small talk.
Delegation & trade missions
Organize B2B meetings on trips abroad and market explorations, with pre-planned meetings on site and full logistical support.
Sector & topic categories
Freely definable categories map your member structure exactly, by sector, region, area of interest or membership status.
Prove the value
Meeting numbers, satisfaction and contact lists in one report, so you can show the value of membership in black and white.
Connected with purpose MA MB Membership becomes measurable value
How it works
Membership becomes value.
Your members add their profile, offering and interests. Converve suggests the right contacts, organizes 1:1 meetings and delivers the proof in the end: this many conversations, this much satisfaction, this much value for the membership.
- Member categories by sector & region
- 1:1 meetings at assemblies & trips
- Your own branding in your association's colors
- Reporting for board & office
Data protection that fits your association
Member data stays in Germany, GDPR-compliant.
Associations and chambers carry responsibility for sensitive member data. Converve is hosted in Germany, processes personal data in a GDPR-compliant way and follows ISO 27001, an argument that counts in the office as much as on the board.
No data transfer to third countries, clear data processing, transparent data-subject rights. That way networking becomes member value without data protection becoming a liability.
- Hosting in Germany, no third-country transfers
- GDPR-compliant processing of member data
- Security standards aligned with ISO 27001
- Data processing & deletion concepts included
Connected all year round
From the annual event to a 365-day community.
The biggest lever for member value lies between events: with the optional 365-day community, your platform simply stays online after the annual meeting. Members keep finding each other through profiles and matching, make contacts long before the next event, and your association becomes a permanently visible networking hub instead of a one-off entry in the calendar.
- Platform stays online after the event
- Member matching all year long
- New members keep joining
- Every event starts with filled-in profiles
“We received a lot of positive feedback on the event app. Thanks to Converve, people talked with more of the right people.” — Malte Kettler, Manager Digital Services, E.I.S Profi Treff

The process
Measurable member value in three steps.
From your member structure to the board report, here is how your event runs with Converve.
-
Map your member structure
Categories by sector, region or membership status map your structure exactly; each group registers through its own multilingual flow. Throughout, the platform carries your association branding.
-
Bring people together with purpose
The MyMatch algorithm suggests the right contacts to each member; the meeting matrix controls who can request whom. This works at the annual meeting just as it does on delegation trips with pre-planned B2B meetings in the target market.
-
Prove the value
After the event, the reporting delivers conversations, new contacts and satisfaction, prepared for board and office. Optionally, the platform stays online as a 365-day community and connects members year-round.
Typical pain points
Where association networking fails in practice, and how Converve solves it.
We hear these six problems again and again from the offices of associations and chambers. For each one there's a built-in answer.
-
“Everyone knows everyone,” but only within their own circle
At member gatherings the same groups often talk to one another. Matching deliberately brings together members who don't yet know each other, across sector, region and interest boundaries.
-
Member value is hard to prove
At the latest in the membership-fee discussion, the office needs numbers. The reporting documents conversations, new contacts and satisfaction per event, and makes the network value of membership visible in black and white.
-
Delegation trips with an empty calendar
A trade mission only pays off with full schedules in the target market. Converve plans B2B meetings between the delegation and local contacts in advance, instead of improvising on site.
-
Data protection as a deal-breaker
Associations and chambers carry responsibility for sensitive member data. Converve is ISO/IEC 27001 certified, GDPR-compliant and, on request, hosted entirely in Germany, including a data processing agreement.
-
Every event starts from scratch
Profiles, contacts and history stay intact: with the 365-day community, the next annual meeting starts with filled-in profiles and existing connections, instead of an empty attendee list.
-
An office without its own IT
Small teams can't shoulder software projects. Every event gets a dedicated contact at Converve who supports setup and execution; the platform itself is intuitive to use for office and members alike.
How do associations and chambers connect their members with purpose?
Purposeful member networking works through structured matchmaking: members add profiles with sector, region, offering and demand; a platform like Converve uses these to suggest the right contacts and organizes pre-planned 1:1 conversations, at annual meetings, industry gatherings or delegation trips. The association steers, through freely definable categories and a meeting matrix, who can see and meet whom, and receives a report in the end that proves the member value in numbers instead of merely claiming it.
Frequently asked questions
Is Converve suitable for members' assemblies and annual meetings?
Yes. Converve combines the conference program with purposeful 1:1 networking: members are matched to relevant program items and conversation partners, and meetings form clash-free around the agenda. The platform is designed for B2B events with roughly 50 to 5,000 attendees.
How does matchmaking work on a delegation trip?
Delegation members and contacts in the target market are set up as their own categories and matched via offer and demand profiles. Before departure, pre-planned B2B meetings on site are fixed, multilingual with AI-powered DeepL translation, including a personal agenda for each participant.
Can we run the platform in our association's design?
Yes, fully white-label: your own colors, your own logo, your own domain with SSL certificate. To members the platform feels like an offering from the association, not like an external tool. Registration flows and emails carry your branding too.
How do we prove the value of the event to the board?
Through the reporting: it shows how many conversations took place, how many new contacts formed and how satisfied members were, on request compared across several years. All data can be exported to Excel and dropped straight into the board report.
Is Converve GDPR-compliant and where does the member data sit?
Converve is a German company, ISO/IEC 27001 certified and GDPR-compliant; a data processing agreement (DPA) is available on request. On request, hosting takes place entirely in Germany, and member data is never shared with third parties.
What is a 365-day community?
An optional extension of the event platform across the whole year: profiles, matching and messages stay active after the event, and new members keep joining. That turns the annual event into a lasting networking offer, and every follow-up event starts with filled-in profiles.
Do our members need an app from the app store?
No. Converve runs as a Progressive Web App (PWA) right in the browser, on smartphone, tablet and desktop, with no download and no installation hurdle. Especially with diverse member structures, that significantly lowers the barrier to entry.
What does Converve cost for an association or chamber?
The price depends on the number of attendees and the modules you choose, such as registration, matchmaking, event website and community. The price configurator gives you a ballpark in two minutes; for recurring formats and event series we put together a no-obligation quote.
