Transforming Event Connections with Bizzabo
In the ever-evolving landscape of event management, Bizzabo has taken a significant leap forward by launching its Integrated Networking Suite. This innovative solution addresses the pressing need for more meaningful and engaging networking opportunities at in-person events. According to Bizzabo’s 2025 State of Events report, while 72% of attendees believe that in-person conferences provide the best platforms for networking, only 30% felt that their last event met their expectations in this regard.
The challenge for event organizers has always been to foster valuable connections among attendees without the typical friction associated with using multiple technologies. Often, event organizers resort to third-party applications to facilitate meetings, which complicates coordination and diminishes attendee engagement. As a result, many attendees find themselves juggling various platforms, leading to missed opportunities and frustration. Moreover, event organizers contend with siloed data and fragmented workflows, making it difficult to maintain operational efficiency.
Seamless Integration and Enhanced Experience
Enter Bizzabo Networking, which seamlessly merges with the Bizzabo Event Experience Operating System (OS). By embedding networking tools directly into its OS, Bizzabo eliminates the need for separate networking applications, thereby offering a unified platform to manage all event components. This integration ensures that networking becomes a core aspect of the event experience instead of a trivial addition. With this approach, Bizzabo enhances both attendee satisfaction and operational effectiveness.
What truly sets Bizzabo Networking apart is its AI-enhanced matchmaking system. Utilizing a wealth of data accumulated throughout the attendee journey — from initial registration to content engagement and personal interests — the matchmaking capabilities are refined to yield better results. Alon Alroy, co-founder and CMO at Bizzabo, emphasizes that today’s event landscape is shifting: "Content alone is no longer sufficient to draw crowds; attendees are looking to build relationships, too. Our networking suite directly tackles this issue, simplifying the process of making connections while also ensuring smoother operational procedures. When networking flows seamlessly, everyone benefits — attendees forge meaningful relationships, sponsors connect with qualified prospects, and organizers enjoy higher satisfaction ratings and repeat attendance."
Key Features and Functionalities
The newly launched Bizzabo Networking suite is equipped with a variety of features aimed at enhancing the event experience. It includes:
