BUYERS AND SOLUTION PROVIDERS
Hosted Buyer Program
Finding new technology and comparison shopping has never been easier.
Schedule
Hosted Buyer Meetings are on Monday and Tuesday, 11am-1:35pm & 3-5pm ET, in our hosted buyer lounge on the exhibition floor.
All meetings are based on a mutual, double opt-in matchmaking process and as a hosted buyer, you will schedule your own meetings within the matchmaking platform. Participants receive an email weeks before the event with log-in information to gain exclusive access to the ViVE Hosted Buyer Platform. Simply indicate your availability and select which types of technology you are interested in and our AI technology will generate suggested business partners for you to accept or decline the offer to meet.
