MATCHMAKING

THANK YOUR FOR JOINING US ON MARCH 12, 2025 FOR OUR VIRTUAL MEMBERS ONLY MATCHMAKING EVENT. More information on how to register for our next Virtual Matchmaking to come. In the meantime, please peruse the pages relevant to this event for 2025 highlights.

Join us for our IN-PERSON MATCHMAKING exclusively for all West Coast attendees – September 11, 2025

Suppliers – here is an opportunity for you to potentially meet virtually with Corporations. We recommend one person per company register for the Supplier Ticket. Supplier companies can have peers join them in their matchmaking meetings.

Pre-requisite for Matchmaking

Each individual from any company who would like to apply for matchmaker meetings must be a current and paid DA4S Member.
Each current Supplier Member needs to register and complete their profile for corporations to review.

February 14 – Deadline Date for Profile Set-Up
All attendees must have their profile complete in the Eventdex Platform.

February 18 – 21

• Corporations will be invited to access the matchmaker portal and start selecting suppliers to meet with.
• During this time we ask suppliers to please be patient and do not try to access the portal while the meeting selections are taking place.
• Corporations will choose suppliers to meet with after reviewing completed profiles.
• Suppliers will receive invitations to confirm acceptance for a meeting.
• Please do not contact us once you set up your profile and are unable to find corporations to request meetings.

February 25
The portal request will be opened to suppliers starting at noon ET. At that time registered suppliers can invite corporations to meet if slots are available.

March 3
All selections must be complete.

March 7
All match meetings finalized. Portal closed.

Are Members Guaranteed a Meeting?

• Matchmaker Meetings are driven by the sourcing needs of participating DA4S National Corporate Members, not by DA4S. There is NO guarantee that a DA4S Member will be invited to participate in a 1:1 Matchmaker Meeting as the corporations will select suppliers within categories they are currently looking to meet.
• Matches are solely selected by the corporations independently.
• DA4S is not responsible for pairing any matches.
• Supplier Portal registration fee ($85.00) will not be refunded if a DA4S Member does not receive an invitation to participate in a Matchmaker Meeting.

Can’t Join or Not Invited to a Matchmaker Meeting?

DA4S will host their in-person Matchmaking on September 11 tied in with the West Coast conference where additional opportunities will be available.
