What this is

GHC is huge, and most attendees only figure out who they should have met on the flight home. This site takes a short questionnaire about your goals and interests and matches you, before the event, with the speakers, sessions, recruiting companies, and fellow attendees most relevant to you. You can also browse the full directories without filling anything out.

Privacy

  • Your email is used only for verification and sending you your match link. It is never shown to other users or included in any listing.
  • Your LinkedIn URL is the public contact method for every listing; that's the tradeoff for being findable.
  • Attendee-to-attendee matching is strictly mutual: you only appear to others (and they to you) if both sides opted in.
  • Speaker and company listings are public by design (that's the point of the directory) but must be email-verified before going live.
  • You can delete your data at any time, either from your match page or by requesting a deletion link by email.

Rules of use

  • No impersonation. Claiming or creating a listing as someone you are not leads to immediate removal, a ban, and a report to the event organizers.
  • No scraping or bulk-harvesting of attendee contact information.
  • Use contact details shared here for event networking only, not for marketing lists.
  • Listings are moderated; anything misleading or abusive is removed.

Where the data comes from

Speaker and session listings are imported weekly from the public GHC session catalog and merged with self-registered entries. Companies and attendees add themselves. If a listing about you is wrong or you want it removed, use the deletion page or claim the listing to correct it.
