If you’ve been to a yacht charter show in Cannes, Miami, or Monaco, you know how it goes. The setting is impressive. The potential is high. But when it comes to scheduling meetings, it quickly becomes chaotic. Crowds, confusion, and inbox overload leave too much to chance.
Networking Should Not feel Like a Guessing Game
As ICE grew into the biggest B2B event in the yacht charter industry, one tool changed how professionals network. Handshake is a revolutionary meeting scheduling platform developed exclusively for ICE. It gives participants full control over scheduling their meetings, making it possible to plan in advance full schedule.
Plan Up to 17 Meetings a Day in Just a Few Clicks
With Handshake, scheduling your ICE meetings begins one month before the event.
As soon as the platform opens, you can arrange up to 17 meetings per day. Each meeting lasts 30 minutes, giving you time to connect and stay on schedule.
You can search by company or by representative. Use filters to narrow results by category such as Fleet Operators, Brokers, Central Agents, Retail Brokers or Suppliers. Once you find the right contact, send a meeting request. Choose the day, select a time, pick a location (either booth or a lounge), and confirm.
One Platform for Chat, Meetings, and Your Agenda
Every confirmed meeting appears in your personal agenda. Your schedule builds automatically. There are no overlaps and no double bookings. You always know where you need to be. You can use the built-in chat to follow up, reschedule, or ask questions. A complete profile with a photo, company information, and contact details helps others find and recognize you easily.
Handshake also includes a layout, giving you a clear view of of the venue in one place. There is no wandering the venue, no waiting for replies, and no endless emails. Just a simple plan from the start.
Swipe to Match and Find the Right People Faster
Handshake also offers the Swipe to Match option. Found in the Personal Programme menu, this feature helps you connect with someone new who shares similar interests. It shows contacts you might not come across when searching by company or representative. It works like a business version of Tinder, giving you a fast way to network beyond your usual list.
