What is SparkX?

How does SparkX Work?
As a registered participant to ESPID 2021, you will receive an invite to build a profile in the days building-up to the Meeting. SparkX then analyses your profile and matches it other participants’ profiles, based on your networking goals, interests and professional background.
Once ESPID 2021 begins and the Meeting Platform opens, go to the Networking Lounge and click on the SparkX button. From inside SparkX, you will be able to view and edit your profile, plus review your recommendations on who to meet during the Meeting.
If you want to connect with one of your recommendations, like their profile. If they like you as well, then you are a match!
With a match, you can start chatting via the SparkX platform or set a 1-on-1 meeting.
The platform will also generate a calendar reminder and provide a video meeting room for each of your meetings.
How do I get started?
