AI-Enhanced Business Development

AI-Enhanced Business Development

The AI-powered Forum App, equipped with a specialized business survey, analyzes your preferred clients. It then compares this data with other profiles to generate a personalized matches list based on mutual business goals. As a result, you secure productive meetings with potential clients and/or partners from around the globe identified especially for you with AI.

AI-Enhanced Business Development

Limited Participant information vs. Customized Business Questionnaire

Many standard event apps offering AI Business Matching options rely on minimal questionnaire data, typically covering basics like country, business area, and job position. This limited data restricts their ability to deeply analyze the business interests of Participants and provide precise matches. In contrast, the GCC Forum App uses a comprehensive business questionnaire with multiple-choice answers tailored to the specific event's target audience, elaborated by a professional team. AI analyzes the answers of all attendees according to their business priorities, enabling the delivery of Perfect Business Matches for each participant.

Learning Over Time vs. Instant Analysis

Many standard event apps employ AI that learns and improves gradually over time as Delegates interact with the platform and make selections. This learning process aims to generate better recommendations in the future based on users' past interactions. Conversely, the GCC Forum App's AI conducts a strong initial analysis based on mathematical logic and a vast dataset created by networking business experts who are intimately familiar with the event's target audience. This ensures a high level of results precision right from the start, without the need to wait for the next event for the system to be improved by machine learning based on your previous answers.
