How Eventdex Turned JBREC’s Speed Networking Event into a Smooth Experience

Networking is the backbone of any successful real estate consulting firm, and John Burns Real Estate Consulting (JBREC) has built its reputation on facilitating valuable industry connections. Their Speed Networking Event is designed to bring together top developers, builders, and financial professionals, creating opportunities for high-impact conversations in a structured environment.

However, executing a speed networking event with 200 attendees comes with its challenges. From managing attendee pairings to keeping interactions on track, ensuring a smooth flow can be a bit tricky. That’s where Eventdex stepped in. By leveraging our Speed Networking solution, JBREC successfully enhanced their event experience, eliminating inefficiencies and driving better outcomes for their attendees.

The Challenges

Before leveraging Eventdex’s Speed Networking Platform, JBREC faced multiple networking roadblocks:

1. Unstructured Networking & Missed Opportunities

At past events, attendees struggled to connect with the right people. Without a proper system, valuable introductions were left to chance, making it difficult for participants to form meaningful connections.

2. Limited Networking Time

With only a few hours allocated for networking, attendees needed an efficient way to meet multiple relevant contacts quickly. Traditional networking often led to prolonged conversations with limited reach, reducing overall engagement.

3. Lack of Follow-Up Mechanisms

Even when participants met the right people, they lacked an easy way to exchange details and schedule follow-ups. Many promising conversations ended without a concrete next step, limiting the long-term impact of networking at the event.

To address these challenges, JBREC turned to Eventdex’s Speed Networking solution, an efficient event tech tool for structured, efficient, and highly targeted networking.

Solution Provided: Structured Speed Networking Sessions

To address these challenges, JBREC implemented Eventdex’s Speed Networking solution, a structured, technology-driven approach that optimized how attendees connected. Instead of relying on unstructured meet-and-greets, the event featured timed Speed Networking sessions, where attendees were systematically matched with relevant contacts based on their interests and goals. 

Attendees were given a specific amount of time for each meeting, ensuring conversations were focused and productive. At the end of each session, participants could exchange contact details digitally for easy follow-ups. This structured approach kept conversations concise and productive, allowing professionals to exchange key insights and identify potential opportunities quickly. Eventdex’s speed networking platform enabled attendees to exchange contact details instantly at the end of the meeting. This streamlined the entire process, ensuring that meaningful conversations continued beyond the event.

The Results

With Eventdex’s Speed Networking solution, the JBREC event saw a significant improvement in networking efficiency and attendee engagement.

1. More Meaningful Connections

By replacing this randomness with a targeted, technology-driven approach, attendees were able to connect with the most relevant professionals in their industry. Each meeting was purposeful, ensuring that both parties had mutual interests or business goals. As a result, attendees were able to meet more valuable contacts in a single event than they typically would through traditional networking formats.

2. Higher Attendee Satisfaction

The structured format eliminated the stress and inefficiencies of traditional networking, making it easier for professionals to connect in a meaningful way. Many attendees found the process more effective than past networking experiences, as every meeting had a clear purpose and value.

3. Increased Post-Event Engagement

A successful networking event isn’t just about initial meetings—it’s about what happens afterward. With Eventdex, attendees could instantly exchange contact details, making it easier to continue conversations beyond the event. This led to stronger business relationships and long-term collaboration opportunities.

Final Thoughts

By implementing structured Speed Networking sessions, Eventdex transformed JBREC’s networking experience, turning random encounters into meaningful business connections.

Therefore, if you are an event organizer planning to maximize networking efficiency and event ROI, Eventdex’s Speed Networking solution proves that with the right technology, networking can be smarter, faster, and more impactful.
