Run an InSync pilot

Test whether the right connections become visible.

Plan a controlled InSync pilot for 30–50 participants and measure relevance quality, activation, trust and event value.

Recommended first pilot

One room. 30–50 participants. A clear learning question.

The first pilot should be small enough to observe carefully and large enough to create a real distribution of relevant signals.

Participant cohort30–50 adults with enough diversity in roles, goals and needs to create meaningful matching opportunities.

One core experienceUse SyncField as the central interaction layer rather than adding multiple event mechanics at once.

Explicit briefingParticipants understand visibility, signals, Wave, staged disclosure and how feedback will be used.

Learning reportSummarize interaction patterns, participant feedback, technical observations and next calibration decisions.

What we measure

Not just “did people meet?”

The pilot should test whether InSync surfaces connections participants perceive as useful, whether those signals create action, and whether the experience increases event value without eroding trust.

Relevance qualityDid surfaced signals feel meaningfully more relevant than random interaction?

ActivationDid participants act on signals through Waves, accepts and real conversations?

TrustDid anonymity, staged disclosure and local context feel understandable and appropriate?

Event valueDid the experience help participants discover conversations they believe they otherwise would have missed?

Why organizers should care

Networking quality can affect whether attendees return.

Freeman's 2025 survey found that 51% of attendees say successful networking makes them want to return to the event. That makes meaningful connection more than a nice-to-have engagement metric.
