Seamless matchmaking for hosted buyer events

Algorithm-driven tools for facilitating meetings that matter.

Vendor–buyer relationships are a two-way street—that’s why one-way, spray-and-pray event marketing tactics don’t work. And yet, most event and conference organizers still only provide high-priced booth space or generic networking opportunities with no useful intel on attendees and little incentive for deep connections between buyers and sellers.

It’s time to go beyond the booth. 1:1 Connect matches qualified buyers with aligned vendors, guaranteeing that every attendee gets the biggest bang for their buck at your event.

  • Never double-book a meeting space

  • Never pair up incompatible event-goers

  • Never waste your vendor’s time pitching to uninterested buyers

  • Always deliver high-quality service and unambiguous value

1:1 Connect is your blueprint for building valuable, long-lasting relationships between you, your conference-goers, and your vendors. Deliver real value to your conference-goers by serving as an expert intermediary, facilitating meaningful meetings that lead to long-lasting partnerships.

Guarantee your attendees return year after year

It’s all about ROI—when you help your vendors find their dream audience and deliver exceptional pitches to qualified buyers, you demonstrate the true value of your event. 1:1 Connect helps you stand out in a crowded event market, boosting your returning vendor rate.

Eliminate the stress of manual meeting coordination 

Time is your most valuable resource for you. 1:1 Connect turns hours of headache-inducing, manual event management into minutes of algorithm-based professional matchmaking driven by your own set of custom criteria.

Why People Love 1:1 Connect

“As a hospitality and events professional, I’ve used several software tools for matching, but they all required hours of manual input. With 1:1 Connect, once you set it up, it just works.
