Helping delegates to come away from conferences with not just five business cards but with twenty – plus some new perspectives.

If just before each session (and especially before topic break-out sessions), conference chairs can get their audiences to form informal groupings (of three or four people), to say hello to one another and why they had come, to give each other their cards (and perhaps other contact names), delegates could hope to go away with not just five business cards but with twenty or more (and most of them good names.)
