In addition, the online event platform featured virtual booths, fully digital web sessions and video talks as well as professional networking thanks to an AI-based matchmaking solution. The concept was said to have been embraced by the international fintech community and generated great interest outside of Switzerland.
The fair participants scheduled an average of 5.4 virtual meetings per attendee on both event days. The record-holder is a visitor who chalked up a total of 28 one-on-one meetings. Altogether the platform recorded over 6,000 of such interactions claiming that there were minimal tech issues faced.
