Brella - the event networking and matchmaking app
Event networking made simple
Step-by-step guide
Here is a step-by-step guide to help you make the best use of your networking at PPLI & VA with the Brella app.
EXPLORE
Once you’ve registered, you’ll gain access to event app and networking platform, Brella. Take a look at your fellow attendees and think about who you’d like to meet.
Note you must be a registered attendee to take advantage of these opportunities.
ENGAGE
Set up your profile in Brella, and let the matchmaking algorithm recommend people to connect with.
The more complete your profile is, the more helpful the tool will be.
CONNECT
Reach out to other attendees through Brella, and start a conversation. Brella helps you schedule meetings before, during and after the conference. It's also easy to politely decline meeting requests that aren’t interesting to you.
And there's also a dedicated space for meetings set up through Brella onsite if you want to make use of it.
FOLLOW UP
After the event, follow up with your new connections.
If there's anyone you weren’t able to meet on site, you can still use Brella to connect with them.
You'll also receive contact information for every presenting company, making it easy to connect with the people who caught your eye.
PLAN YOUR SCHEDULE
There will be hours of networking time built into the PPLI & VA agenda.
Please take advantage of the Brella app to schedule your meetings prior to the event.
