Networking Events Ideas: Networking Bingo

What is Networking Bingo?

Bingo can be used as an ice-breaker at networking and business events as an alternative to speed networking. The concept is easy you have a bingo grid and you go round the room talking to people and finding out things about them and people work to check-off everything or a line in the grid (depending on the size of the grid used and/or length of the event).

There are a number of different things you can put in the bingo grid to suit your audience.

Examples include:

1. Conversation starters / questions to ask.
2. Matching general facts to a person.
3. Sharing tips and advice.
4. Names of attendees.
5. Specific facts linked to a particular person at an event which have been submitted in advance
