B2B prospecting tactics for the event
Tech BBQ 2026 gathers investors, family offices and corporate representatives across its tracks. Practical steps to convert attendance into meetings
- Map tracks to targets. Identify which sessions host the investors, family offices or corporate units you need and prioritise those when building your schedule.
- Prepare a concise ask. Craft a 30 second pitch with traction metrics, customer profile and the specific collaboration you seek to use in short encounters.
- Book priority meetings early. Request on-site or side event meetings with priority targets during program networking slots.
Carry short digital evidence that supports your claims to share instantly during conversations.
Using sector sessions to qualify contacts
If fintech or AI is your focus, prioritise Future of Fintech and AI Native Fintechs and target speakers with product and go to market experience. For deep tech and medtech use the Life Science x Deep Tech track to find teams bridging research and commercialization. The investor focused summits help identify LPs and family offices with sector mandates.
