How It Works
A matchmaking event is a quick and easy way to meet potential cooperation partners. People meet and greet at high speed. 20 minutes are usually enough to build connections, pinpoint collaboration interests and move on to the next talk.
1. Online registration
Registration is quick and easy.
- Information day: registration
- Brokerage & long term networking: registration.
2. Publish an interesting profile
Publish a concise but informative profile to raise your visibility at the event. A good profile highlights your expertise and what you can offer to potential partners.
Informative, high quality profiles will lead to better meetings. Good profiles attract hundreds of visits before & AFTER the event.
Your profile will be automatically visible as soon as you save it.
3. Marketplace
The Marketplace is where you can publish your project cooperation ideas, expertise offers, and other cooperation needs. The following cooperation offer types are available:
- Project Cooperation*: Horizon Europe & Digital Europe AI TEF project ideas for which would like to search for at least one further partner for your consortium. Project cooperation ideas may be initiated by:
- Consortium looking for a partner in a specific topic
- Partner looking for a consortium in a specific topic
- Expertise*: You have specific expertise and are willing to participate in an Horizon Europe project (e.g. expertise that may be needed in many call topics).
4. Promotion of published profiles
All Face2Face profiles will be accessible online. Your cooperation offers will be visible on the marketplace. These pages will attract numerous visitors during consortium building for Horizon Europe.
Use our graphics template on social media to publicize the opportunity to meet you at Digital-Industry-2021.
You can update your profile at any time.
5. Browse participants, send & receive meeting requests
Browse published project ideas and participant profiles. Send meeting requests to those you want to meet during the event (and after the event during the long term networking phase).
Check your meeting requests regulary and accept/decline them well in advance.
6. At the event
