Speed Networking with
Targeted Matches and
AAG Biz MatchUp™
Could you facilitate 150 people into 2100 matches in 90 minutes? Is that possible? Think of the logistics!
(And by the way, the meetings should be targeted matches -
where each party has a preference for who they meet with.)
Think of the emails back and forth!

“Jennifer, I had to write you to let you know
that the last AAG MatchUp was phenomenal! I
meet so many contacts that I wouldn’t have
been able to meet any other way. I met one
particular contact that put me in touch with 97
organizations that were willing to work with us
– at no cost! I am so lucky that I went.” Alan Savage,CEO

“The AAG Speed Networking program has been
a wonderful addition to 1871’s member

conversations and potential business
relationships within our community. We are
excited to expand the program and look forward
to continuing to use the technology to help our
startups build their businesses.”
