Network possibilities

Direct message using the “people” tab

Anyone can send messages to an individual at a Hopin event via DMs in the People tab. To send a DM, find the person you wish to chat within the People tab, click their profile photo, and send a direct message to them. Navigating Backstage (StreamYard)

Schedule a meeting using the “people” tab

While you are able to create private one-to-one video chats with other participants, the schedule meeting feature allows you to schedule those meetings.

Utilize the “Networking” space  

The Networking segment on Hopin is pure engagement and is similar to one-on-one meetings on a FaceTime call. This segment is designed to recreate the “coffee-in-the-lobby” conversations or watercooler chats that are important at an in-person event. The Networking area automates the discovery of new connections. When an attendee participates in the Networking, they are matched with a random attendee and meet for a set time preset by the organizer. Attendees can click the Connect button during a call to exchange contact information and after the event the newly made contacts will appear at https://hopin.to/account/connections page of their individual Profile.

Check out the exhibition area

 The Expo area is the virtual exhibitor hall with sponsor booths in our event and serves as another great way to network. Click into booths to engage with the company by either group chatting, video-chatting, or direct messaging.
