Business Matchmaking Forum

Back by popular demand, we will once again hold a Business Matchmaking forum designed for your company to interact face-to-face with other companies, developing new leads and possibilities to grow your business. In this era of electronic communications, discussing business across a table with a potential business partner is still a much-desired activity.

ISOA’s Business Matchmaking Sessions are similar to “speed dating” and work like this: Matchmaking hosts sit at small tables with four chairs each. Companies who desire to meet with matchmaking hosts rotate around the room to sit across the table with desired hosts. Each session will last 8-10 minutes. A bell is rung to signal the end of the session. All companies should have an opportunity to meet with their desired hosts. The short matchmaking meetings should be followed up with longer discussions at our networking sessions and beyond.

Sponsorship Opportunities:

High visibility sponsorship opportunities are available for ISOA’s 2023 Annual Summit! Take advantage of this excellent opportunity to get your company’s name and capabilities in front of the largest primes and subs in the industry.
