Speed networking

Ignite: Life Science & Bio Solution Summit · Wednesday 9 September 2026 · G.A.S.A., Odense

Five conversations. Eight minutes each. Nothing left to chance.
Speed Match is the Summit’s matchmaking session: in one hour you have five focused conversations with five people you don’t know — matched, not random.

You’ll sit at a table of eight: four who are looking, four who can open doors. Your counterpart sits beside you, not across the table. When the gong sounds, the room moves and a new person is in front of you. The seating is generated in advance under one hard rule: you never meet anyone you have already shared a table with. No repeats, no wasted rounds.

Every conversation follows the same structure, so no time is lost working out what to say:
Who are you, and what are you working on? (5 min)
What do you need in the next three months? (2 min) — one concrete ask: capital, a pilot customer, lab access, a CTO, a distribution partner
What do we agree on? (1 min) — name, channel, deadline
That last minute matters most. You don’t leave with “let’s stay in touch” — you leave with an agreement.
