Today, we launched our new networking solution to help you deliver the meaningful connections attendees increasingly demand from in-person events. Our fully integrated suite addresses a growing industry challenge identified in our 2025 State of Events report: while 72% of attendees say in-person conferences offer the best networking opportunities, only 30% felt their last event provided enough.
That’s why networking remains a priority for event organizers — but delivering a seamless experience is harder than ever. Many events rely on third-party apps for meetings, unintentionally creating friction. Attendees must juggle multiple platforms, leading to missed opportunities and disengagement. Organizers struggle with siloed data, fragmented workflows, and procurement challenges that slow everything down.
Bizzabo Networking seamlessly integrates with our Event Experience Operating System, eliminating the need for separate networking tools while providing organizers with a unified platform to manage all aspects of their events. When networking is embedded within Bizzabo’s OS, it becomes a core part of the event experience instead of an isolated add-on.
Its AI-enhanced matchmaking is fueled with rich data from throughout the attendee journey. It leverages hundreds of data points, from registration to content engagement to people’s interests, making its matchmaking more accurate.
"Event organizers today face a fundamental shift in what drives attendance. Content alone no longer fills seats — people are coming to build relationships," said Alon Alroy, Cofounder and CMO at Bizzabo. "Our integrated networking suite directly addresses this by making it easier for organizers to deliver the connections attendees crave while maintaining operational efficiency. When networking becomes frictionless, everyone wins: attendees make meaningful connections, sponsors meet qualified prospects, and organizers see higher satisfaction scores and return rates."
Bizzabo Networking launches with features including data-rich matchmaking, seamless web and mobile scheduling, customizable location settings, and time-blocking capabilities that ensure attendees don't miss important sessions. Attendees can find and meet the right people without switching apps, schedules stay in sync, and organizers get a single, reliable source of truth for all interactions. This isn’t just about eliminating logistical headaches; it’s about elevating networking to a strategic advantage — driving higher engagement, better event ROI, and a more cohesive experience for everyone involved.
Bizzabo Networking is available immediately for events of all sizes. Interested in learning more? Schedule a demo to see how we can help streamline meetings, eliminate tech silos, and create seamless connections at your next event.
