In addition to educational sessions, Eyewear Artwalk Denver will feature matchmaking for deeper relationship building. The event uses AI to curate a matchmaking list for each attendee, indicating which entities at Eyewear Artwalk are interested in doing business with them, as well as where they are located to facilitate a more streamlined approach to tradeshows. After the event, attendees and brands will receive a full report on all of their engagement throughout the experience, showcasing those entities that have a higher probability of closing vs. those that don’t, maximizing their sales efforts.
