Networking properties / filters

Overview

In Networking → Properties / filters you define participant properties / filters that label participants in the public networking frontend.
These properties / filters help participants find suitable conversation partners more quickly. Examples include "Role", "Interest" or "Industry".

Here you define:

  • which properties / filters exist (name),
  • which description is shown in the networking frontend,
  • and in which order the properties / filters are displayed.

Features

View and sort properties / filters

  1. Open the desired event.
  2. Navigate to Networking → Properties / filters.
  3. A list of all existing properties / filters is shown.
  4. You can adjust the order via drag & drop:
    • Properties / filters higher up have higher priority and are usually shown more prominently.

Create new property / filter

  1. Click "Add property / filter".
  2. Fill in the following fields:
    • Name of property / filter
      Short label (e.g. "Investor", "Startup", "Corporate", "Mentor").
    • Description (shown in networking list)
      Short explanation of what this property / filter means and what it is used for.
  3. The property / filter is automatically created with a suitable priority (position in the list).
  4. Save your changes so the properties / filters are available in the public networking frontend.

Edit property / filter

  1. Click the desired property / filter in the list.
  2. Adjust name and/or description.
  3. Save your changes.

Note:
If participants are already linked to this property / filter, the updated name is automatically used everywhere.

Delete property / filter

  1. Click Delete on the desired property / filter.
  2. Confirm the safety dialog.

Deleted properties / filters are no longer available for selection and are not shown in future networking runs.
Existing links lose this property / filter.

Fields

  1. Name of property / filter
    • Internal and public short label in the networking frontend.
    • Should be expressive but short.
  2. Description (networking list)
    • Short help text shown in the networking people list.
    • Explains what the property / filter stands for (e.g. "Founder of an early‑stage startup", "Invests in Seed/Series A").
  3. Priority
    • Managed in the background via the order in the list (1, 2, 3, …).
    • Automatically updates when you move, add or remove properties / filters.

Usage

  • Plan properties / filters early: Ideally define participant properties / filters before configuring ticketing and registration. This lets you add matching questions in ticketing (single‑ or multi‑select), map them to properties / filters in event sync – and participants can already provide the data during registration.
  • Define a clear set of properties / filters before event start that matches your format (e.g. roles, industries, interests).
  • Communicate the purpose of properties / filters to participants so they can categorize themselves meaningfully.
  • Use ordering to show important properties / filters first (e.g. "Startup", "Investor") so they stand out when browsing contacts.

Note: Properties / filters are only filled with values once event sync maps single‑ or multi‑select questions from ticketing to networking properties / filters.
