How can I share my screen during 1:1 meetings?
- Click the Screen Sharing icon
right next to the camera icon - Choose what to share (your entire screen, a window, or just one browser tab)
- After you have selected, click the Share button
Please note that if you share your screen while playing a video, the other participant(s) will not hear the sound unless it's coming from your PC/laptop and is loud enough for your microphone to pick it up.
Can I invite a third person to my 1:1 meeting?
- You can invite other people, such as your colleagues, to join the meeting
- To do so, go to your Meetings page and click the Invite guests button that is visible in all your upcoming meetings
- A pop-up window will appear with a direct link you can send to anyone you want
- When that person clicks on the link, they will be redirected directly to the online 1:1 meeting
- The person does not have to be registered for the event or have a b2match profile to join the online meeting this way
- You can access the invitation link even if you have already started the meeting by clicking the Invite guest icon
in the bottom left corner of your screen
Please do not share your login information with your colleagues if you want them to join your meeting. If two people are logged in to the same profile and join the online meeting, one of them will be kicked out. Always use the direct link to invite other people.
Why can't I request meetings with some participants?
- Participants available for meeting requests are indicated with the Request meeting button. If the button is gray:
- You may not have registered for any 1:1 meetings sessions
- please make yourself available for 1:1 meetings sessions via Agenda or Availability
- The participant you want to meet might not have registered for any 1:1 meetings sessions
- Booking rules applied by the event organizer might not allow booking specific participant groups, e.g. no meetings among Sellers & Sellers; Start-ups can’t send meetings requests to Investors, etc.
- You might not have any common overlapping 1:1 meetings sessions
- Please sign-up for some additional 1:1 meetings sessions via Agenda or Availability
