WIN Mingle map™
The WIN Mingle Map™ is our unique tool for active matchmaking at WIN meetings.
We create a unique Mingle Map for each meeting based on our knowledge of each participant and their requirements/wishes. Nodes on the map represent companies and organizations at a meeting. Each line is a potential business opportunity identified by the WIN team. We encourage everyone involved to explore all business opportunities – both spontaneous and mapped.
Matchmaking is a common thread throughout our work. Connecting the right actors with each other is the prerequisite for success and the basis for companies and innovators to participate. It can be about two start-ups having solutions that complement each other and are suitable to offer as a package, or about a company with a specific need that an innovator can probably meet.
WIN Meetings
The core of WIN is to create meetings between large companies with challenges and innovators where the the companies present their challenges and innovators present their solutions and get feedback from each other. These meetings provide inspiration and knowledge about what is and will be possible in a particular area in the future. Often, the companies and innovators start collaborating to apply or further develop a solution. On average, each participant follows up on more than four contacts from a WIN meeting. Prior to each meeting, WIN identifies possible common areas of interest between the participants and tailors a special mingle map to get the right people to talk to each other.
