Conference Networking Software for Small Conferences

Turn the hallway track from luck into design. EventIntro matches attendees at small conferences by goals, so the people worth meeting actually find each other.

Who this is for

  • Organizers of single-track or small multi-track conferences under a few hundred people.
  • Program teams whose attendee feedback keeps saying "I didn't meet the right people."
  • Hosts who've tried badge-scanning apps and found they count contacts instead of creating them.

Why does networking at small conferences come down to luck?

At most conferences, who you meet is decided by where you stand and who you already know — the "hallway track" is real, but it's random. Small conferences make that waste especially painful: the twenty people who'd change your event are in the building, and you'll probably talk to none of them. EventIntro removes the luck by telling each attendee, up front, who those people are.

A conference is a temporary, high-density collection of exactly the people someone flew in to meet — and the default tools do nothing to help them find each other. Session scheduling gets obsessive attention; the connections, which are half the reason people came, get a tote bag and a prayer.

What does EventIntro add to a conference?

A short survey at registration, and a ranked "who to meet" list for every attendee before they arrive. Each suggestion comes with a reason — this person is building what you're selling, that one solved the problem in your talk. The hallway track still happens; it just stops being blind. See what EventIntro is for the full pipeline.

Where does this fit around the agenda?

In the time your schedule already leaves open — registration, meals, and the breaks between sessions. EventIntro doesn't bolt on a networking hour; it makes the unstructured minutes you already have land on the right people, so a coffee queue becomes the conversation someone remembers the conference for.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from a conference app with a contact scanner?
Scanners record who you already bumped into; they do nothing to change who that is. EventIntro works upstream: it reads each attendee's goals from a short survey and tells them who — of everyone registered — is most worth finding, before the hallway track becomes a coin flip.
Do attendees need to download anything?
No app install. Attendees complete a five-question survey from a link and get their ranked match list in the browser. EventIntro sits above whatever conference platform or venue you're already using rather than replacing it.
What conference size is this built for?
Small conferences — roughly 30 to a few hundred people. Below that you barely need help; far above it the format shifts to a mass event, which isn't what EventIntro is for. The sweet spot is a conference small enough that meeting the right ten people would change your event.
