Virtual matchmaking
There is also an option to book virtual matchmaking meetings with any delegate for four weeks following the Inward Mission. This option is only open to delegates who have booked on at least one of the UK days in Glasgow, Alderley Park or Cambridge. This may be ideal if you can't meet the person you wanted to on the day, you have an opportunity for partnering that you weren't aware on the event day or you want to meet a UK organisation that is not attending your local day.
