DEFSEC Atlantic will be facilitating Business-to-Business and Business-to-Government meetings which will be available to all registered attendees.

We will be using an all-in-one web platform combining matchmaking, messaging and scheduling for the meetings. An important note is that we will only be facilitating in-person meetings at our event – virtual/online meetings will NOT be offered.

This year there will be one large room located on the Argyle Level of the Halifax Convention Centre dedicated to B2B meetings known as the “B2B Zone”. Inside it are 30 dedicated 8′ x 8′ divided spaces which will be setup strictly for in-person meetings on Wednesday, October 2 and Thursday, October 3.

The B2B2GO Web Platform launched in the first week of September. Before the event week, attendees will have a chance to use the platform to find each other, make connections and then plan arranged meetings on the event days. We will also be using this same system for messaging after the event week, with access after the event ending on October 31, 2024.

All registered DEFSEC Atlantic attendees will receive a personal e-mail invite to create their own individual profile in the B2B2GO platform. Those who register after the initial launch of the B2B2GO platform should receive their e-mail invite within 1 business day of the date they register. We will be doing daily syncs in the late afternoon between our registration platform and the B2B2GO platform each weekday between its launch and our event.

Don’t forget that you MUST be a registered attendee for DEFSEC Atlantic 2024 in order to be able to activate your B2B profile.
