AI POWERED NETWORKING SOFTWARE
Our platform and app generate recommendations for users thanks to our powerful Ai and machine learning technologies. The matchmaking engine uses the information entered in your profile when you first logged into the platform to recommend people and content. It also learns from your user experience and refines the networking recommendations as you go. So basically, the more you interact, more accurate and relevant are the recommendations.
LEAD GENERATION
Among the thousands of participants in Building The Future are those who can help you activate and develop your business. All participants who somehow show interest in your company - profile of one of your representatives, sponsored session, digital booth or products or services - will appear in the respective Leads section so that you can follow up on the contact. Sponsors can get an overview with all participants that interacted with their company and related profiles.

Log into Building The Future and live the digital experience that we have prepared for you through our app or platform anytime and anywhere. Share, learn, get inspired, interact, develop new skills, boost your network and enjoy all the features we bring in 2022.
SPEED NETWORKING
This edition we are challenging our participants to join speed networking sessions. During several 3 minutes slots, throughout the 2 days of the event, you will be able to meet new customers or partners. Our platform, based on your interests, will find and establish an instant video call so you can get to know each other. Add these moments to your schedule and have fun!
BUILD YOUR OWN EVENT
Our platform allows the event to be experienced by everyone in a unique and personalized way. Participants can create their own event agenda (“My Schedule”), by selecting on the event agenda only the sessions that meet their interests. In this way, everyone can build “their own event” and integrate it into their personal calendar, receiving notifications in real time. Check our content recommendations: user interaction data and NLP provides valuable recommendations of sessions to attend.
RELEVANT INTERACTION
Attend Building The Future sessions and interact via chat with speakers and other participants. Participate in pools, Q&A and rate our sessions – speakers love feedback! You will also be able to interact and activate your contacts trough chat and instant video calls.
HISTORY ABOUT
Since 2019, Building The Future, sponsored by Microsoft and built by imatch, presents itself as the main Portuguese digital transformation event.
In 4 years of Building The Future, was an honour to receive 1008 speakers, who inspired more than 60 thousand participants in 523 sessions.
We brought together the educational ecosystem during 3 editions of EduDay: because the importance of technology as an engine of Education and re-skilling for digital transformation is undeniable.
In 2020, we launched the first edition of Job Pitch Challenge, a program that provided students or recent graduates with access to various professional opportunities through interviews with CEO's and Top Managers of the largest companies in Portugal.
As part of the mission to stimulate innovation and entrepreneurship in Portugal, we presented Startup World, where we introduced startups with technologically innovative solutions with high potential for global scalability. We also looked for inspiring and innovative ideas that extend beyond the boundaries of technology in a programming marathon - Building The Future Hackathon!
After 4 editions, the themes and trends may have changed, but our mission remains the same: to empower people and companies through technology.
Thank you to everyone who is part of this journey!
