Meetup Lounge
Pre-Arranged Meetings
To schedule pre-arranged meetings with other attendees, here are a few tips:
Step 1: Complete Your Profile
When you log into your Black Hat Events app (Swapcard) account (which will be available for attendees starting July 27), complete your profile by selecting your needs and preferences. You can do this by clicking on the "My Profile" tab in the event app platform.
Step 2: Request One-on-One Meetings
Attendees can request meetings with any attendee registered for the event through the Black Hat Events app (Swapcard). You will be able to search attendees by job title, professional interest, and other filters (including if they are available for meetings). You're welcome to send them a meeting request with a proposed date, time, and location. Meetings will take place in the Meetup Lounge which is in Hall D of the Business Hall. At the time of your meeting simply show your confirmed meeting request at the check-in counter to be assigned a table.
The Black Hat Events app (Swapcard) is a fantastic way to make new connections---and affords attendees control over their meeting schedules. If you want to exchange contact details, send the person a connection request and upon approval, you can both see each other’s contact details. If you accept a meeting request, contact details are also exchanged.
If you cannot fulfill a meeting request, you’re free to reschedule or if time does not permit, decline it.
