How many meetings can I book?

There are no limits on the number of meetings you can book.

How many meeting requests can I accept?

You may accept all meeting requests. Please respond promptly in order to keep your schedule up to date, and as a courtesy to other delegates.

I'm unavailable for meetings at certain times. How can I stop other delegates requesting meetings at these times?

  • Log in to the online scheduler and go to 'Schedule'
  • Click the 'Available' link on any timeslots when you do not want to have meetings.

How can I reschedule a meeting?

Note: the Reschedule function is optional and may be switched on or off by the event manager at any time.

  • Click the meeting entry on your Home or Schedule page to open it, and select the 'Reschedule' tab in the meeting management pane
  • Click the Reschedule button within the pane, and select a new time from the available meeting slots.
  • Complete the action by clicking the blue reschedule button. You can add a message to let the meeting participants know what you are doing.

Unconfirmed meetings will remain unconfirmed. If you are the recipient of a meeting request that you or your meeting partner has rescheduled, you will still need to confirm or decline it.

When should I book meetings?

As soon as possible! The online system gets busy in the days before the conference and by delaying your meeting bookings you may miss opportunities to meet with your priority targets.

There's a company I really want to meet, but its attendee has no more meeting times available. Is there any other meeting option at the conference?

There will be informal networking and a concierge desk at the event. Please contact Lucy Daniels lucy@aogfreight247.com, phone 01420 571393 who can help you arrange a meeting.
