Business Networking Platform
Business networking that happens at your event, planned before attendees arrive
A business networking platform connects people who should do business with each other. Eventdex does this at events: it is event-based, so the networking happens inside a conference, expo or trade mission that you organize, rather than in a standalone network people join between events.
Eventdex describes its business matchmaking as AI-powered event matchmaking software for B2B events. It recommends meetings and schedules 1:1, group and hosted buyer meetings from the preferences attendees and organizers set, so people can start meeting the right contacts before the event begins.

What to know before you choose
Event-based, not an always-on network
Eventdex's pages describe networking within an event you run. They do not describe a standalone platform attendees use between events.
Meetings start before the event
The matchmaking page says attendees can start meeting the right people before the event starts, with schedules built from their preferences.
Built for buyer and seller events
The page lists diverse business conferences, government procurement events, mentor-protege programs, investor conferences, trade missions and hiring events as uses.
Supplier data for diverse businesses
Businesses can add capability statements, certifications and marketing material, and Eventdex collects diversity-specific data such as NAICS codes, diversity certifications and commodities.
Organizer control
Organizers define the preference fields, can modify many schedules at once with bulk actions, and set open, semi-open or closed appointment formats.
What the pages do not say
They give no match-quality figures and make no comparison with other networking platforms. Ask in a demo how matching would be set up for your event.
“Very smooth... Liked selecting meetings and blocking off time. Amazing! Would use again! ... I met with the people I wanted to meet and appreciated the option to read the profiles and decline meetings if someone would not be a good fit.”

FAQ
Business Networking Platform: common questions
What is a business networking platform?
Software that helps businesses and professionals find and meet each other. Some are always-on networks. Eventdex is event-based: it runs the networking for an event, with matchmaking, scheduled meetings, speed networking and reporting.
Can people use Eventdex to network between events?
Eventdex's pages describe networking inside events an organizer runs, not a standalone app attendees use between events. If you need an always-on professional network, its pages do not describe one.
How does the matching work?
The matchmaking page says Auto Matchmaker uses priority, string and semantic matching with NLP to rank top matches and auto-schedule, and that organizers define the preference fields. Profiles can be scored on attributes such as location, commodities and capital. The page gives no accuracy figures.
Who uses it?
The matchmaking page lists diverse business conferences, government procurement events, SBA mentor-protege programs, investor conferences, pharmaceutical congresses, trade missions and job or hiring events.
Does it work for virtual meetings?
Yes. The matchmaking page describes virtual meetings in a single video room, where attendees join several scheduled meetings without leaving, rate meetings and invite external participants. Speed networking is also described for virtual events.
What happens to the contacts afterward?
The matchmaking page says users can store attendee information and export it to their CRM, and describes event reporting with dashboards and custom reports. It does not describe an ongoing contact network after the event.
