Respect, tolerance and understanding of others’ backgrounds and beliefs must be exemplified at all times. The summit is a forum to showcase the industry at its best and no form of discrimination, bullying or harassment of any kind will be tolerated.

Delegates must not engage in disruptive speech, behaviour, spamming or in any way which disrupts or interferes with the event or other individual’s participation in the summit. Rethink Events will be monitoring the open forums throughout the summit.

Depending on whether the other attendee is joining in-person or virtually, you will have the option to book a meeting at our dedicated 1-1 Meeting tables, at an Exhibition Booth (for exhibitors only) or via video call hosted on the platform itself.

There will be a dedicated 1-1 Meeting Help Desk at the summit if you require further assistance.

We’ve prepared a short video tour of the platform to help you get started which you can watch here:

All summit content and networking abilities will be available on the platform for one month after the summit, until April 21, 2022.

The only exception is that roundtables are not recorded and will not be available to watch on demand.

First, update your profile with a photo, a short biography and information about your company and skills.

The more information you include, the better the AI matchmaking tool can work, to increase profile views and suggested matches with the right people you want to meet.

You can manage your schedule in the ‘My Planner’ tab at the top of the homepage. Here you can manage your availability for meetings, browse the connections you have made, and view which sessions you have registered to attend (note it is not mandatory to register for sessions, this is just to allow you to plan your time).

Have a look at this video we made, explaining how to request meetings and manage your schedule on Swapcard:

Virtual roundtables are the only sessions which require you to register your place. They work like a ‘zoom’ video call and are limited to 12 participants. You can secure your spot by heading to the Roundtables tab from the menu at the top of the page and then clicking the ‘+’ button next to the roundtable you would like to join.

Please note you will only be able to join one roundtable session per day and they are not recorded so will not be available to watch on demand.

When you are watching a session via the ‘Watch LIVE’ tab you will be able to engage in the live audience chat on the right-hand side. You are able to submit questions in the dedicated ‘Questions’ tab which will be fed to the session chair, and participate in any polls that may be running.

Click ‘Book 1-1 Meetings’ in the menu at the top of the page on desktop or on the homepage of the app. You can filter the attendee list by company type, country and company name.

You will receive a notification when that meeting is accepted, and can also add to your own calendar.
