MATCH!

FDIC Match!

FDIC’s MATCH! program is the most direct path to meet with decision makers who are actively participating in selecting products or services now.

Get a jump start on your lead generation by meeting with MATCH! VIPs who are looking to source what your business provides, a full FOUR hours before the exhibit hall opens on Thursday morning.

It doesn’t get any easier than this!

I love this! I travel all around the country and attend a lot of tradeshows. This is the best set up I’ve ever seen for one-to-one conversations.

Michael Fletcher
Cradlepoint MATCH! Exhibitor
I’ve been to other one-to-one meeting events and was blown away by the turnout here and the engagement. Nice that prospects came with an agenda of items to discuss, I haven’t seen that before.

Kegan Konray
Target Solutions, MATCH! Exhibitor
This was phenomenal! I can definitely see writing $400,000 in business just on these Match meetings. I will definitely do this again!

Brian Bush
Bryx, MATCH! Exhibitor
I would have never had this type of quality meetings with departments of this caliber any other way.

James Burneka
Firefighter Cancer Consultants, MATCH! Exhibitor
This is the best 3 hours I’ve ever spent. I’ve made more contacts in 3 hours than I would have in 3 days on the show floor.

Who Qualifies as an FDIC MATCH! Attendee?

Attending participants will include authorized buyers made up of high ranking department officers, committee members and chairs with purchasing authority and power who have demonstrated an immediacy of purchase. Sample titles include: Chief of Department, Training Officer, Staff Chiefs, Committee Chairman, Purchasing Agents, etc.

MATCH! is all about efficiency and convenience for BOTH the attendee and exhibitor, so participants must be in the process of selecting or researching products or services to purchase within the next 24 months

How Does the MATCH! Program Work?

Participating Exhibitors submit a product/service category profile that identifies what their offerings are
FDIC MATCH! VIP Attendees are asked to complete a sourcing profile that identifies what their current product or service needs are
Our matchmaking platform then works to organically generate recommendations based on similar specified product or service needs
Participants are able to send meeting requests after reviewing one another’s profiles
Participants accept meetings after reviewing profiles to assure accurate mutual interest
If not able to travel to FDIC in Indy, VIPs can still take advantage of the MATCH! service virtually, two weeks later
