MatchPoint, the AI-driven networking platform designed to help attendees skip the small talk and spark real conversations, is thrilled to announce its participation in Connect Marketplace 2025, taking place August 27–29 at the Miami Beach Convention Center.
Hosted by Informa Connect, Connect Marketplace is one of the premier gatherings for the meetings and events industry, known for blending serious business with high-energy experiences (and, yes, Flo Rida will be there this year). With over 38,000 one-on-one appointments expected, the conference serves as the perfect backdrop for MatchPoint’s mission: to take the guesswork out of networking and replace it with smart, intentional connections.
“Informa’s ability to bring together the most influential show organizers in the world is unmatched,” said Scott Lebwohl, Co-Founder of MatchPoint. “For us, it’s an opportunity to showcase how AI-powered networking can elevate events and deliver lasting value to industry leaders. We’re thankful to have such an incredible partner in Informa, whose support affords us the chance to grow their brand as well as ours.”
Attendees at Connect Marketplace will get a hands-on look at how MatchPoint’s AI technology uses behavorial science and smart matchmaking to help people find the connections that matter most—before, during, and after the event.
“Networking is often where the value of an event lives or dies,” says Bill McGlade, Co-Founder of MatchPoint. “But let’s be honest, most attendees still find it awkward, inefficient, or just plain exhausting. We built MatchPoint to fix that. And Connect Marketplace is the perfect place to show what intelligent, human-centered networking can really look like.”
When attendees are ready to take a break from the buzz of the show floor, they can recharge (and reconnect) at the MatchPoint Café (booth #100)—a welcoming space designed for spontaneous chats, great coffee, and the kind of networking that doesn’t feel like work.
As Michela Giovannotto, vice president of BizBash said, “It’s a way for us to give another opportunity for attendees to meet with potential business matches outside of the one-on-one appointments.”
Find MatchPoint at Booth #100 and don’t miss the live demos and behind-the-scenes interviews with top industry leaders throughout the event.
