There are 2 ways: Go to the menu and go to Representatives, or go to Companies. You will see that they are divided into 3 sectors (Fleet Operators, Brokers and Suppliers). Find someone you are interested in, click on them and go to Request Appointment.
The B2B marketplace is a feed where everyone can write what they are offering, and what they are looking for. This makes it easy as you quickly see what companies are offering at ICE. You do not need to go to their profiles, or search on ther websites what they do.
We recommend you fill out both parts in the B2B Marketplace. Every company coming to ICE is offering something unique, but also looking for something specific. So use this opportunity to present what you do and what you are looking for.
You can find it in the Personal Programme menu. It is used to find someone new with similar interests, that you maybe would not notice in the Companies or Representatives option. It is like a business Tinder.
30 minutes is standard meeting time at ICE for years, it has been proven the most efficient. You can end earlier and go to your next appointment without being late etc. but they are up to 30 minutes for all 3 expo days.
Unfortunately, as the schedule is universal for everyone it is not possible to close certain appointments. Handshake’s main purpose is to maximize your time at ICE and contact with others. Feel free to invite potential partners for lunch. Also, you can send a note to those that have requested a meeting that you are not available and try to reschedule.
“request connection” – The app automatically saves this connection, and at the end of the expo you can go to MENU – MY CONTACTS and there you can find all your connections – on the top right corner there is a download sign, and you can download all your connections as an excel file. It will include name, surname, company, contact info and where you got this contact from.
“open chat” – You can chat with participants using your online mobile chat.
“personal notes” – You can write down information after the meeting on the person or company in PERSONAL NOTES, and after ICE go to MENU – ACTIVITIES and see your personal notes, but also you have the option to download in the upper right corner.
The QR code sign on the top right of the social wall page allows you to quickly save new contacts you’ve made at ICE, by just scanning other users’ QR codes. The system automatically saves them as your connections with their names and the companies they belong to. If you are in a hurry and just met someone on the way to your next meeting, just quickly scan your acquaintance’s QR code.
The second option is that when you have Handshake open, just shake your phone and your scanner will automatically open!
