The Challenge

Why Most Teams Fail to Maximize Event ROI

Without preparation, Finovate Europe 2026 becomes an expensive networking trip with nothing to show.

Unusable Portals

500+ attendees. No way to filter by ICP. Finding ideal prospects means manually clicking through thousands of profiles.

Too Late

30-40% of attendees register in the last 2-3 weeks. Finish reaching out to one batch, hundreds more registered. Always behind.

No Prioritization

Without scoring and segmentation, all 500+ attendees look the same. Teams waste cycles on low-fit prospects instead of focusing on high-value targets.

Manual Multi-Channel

Reaching prospects across email, LinkedIn, phone, and in-app manually is impossible at scale. Most teams pick one channel and miss opportunities.

Best Practices

How to Actually Maximize Finovate ROI

Winning teams follow two phases: preparation and execution.

3-4 weeks before

Pre-Event Preparation

Identify Target Prospects

Monitor attendee lists continuously as 30-40% register in the last 2-3 weeks.

Enrich with Contacts

Add verified emails, LinkedIn profiles, company data, and tech stack to raw attendee names.

ICP, Persona & ABM Matching

Score by role, title, job level, company size, revenue, location, industry. Match to target personas and ABM accounts. Focus on top 20%.

Launch Multi-Channel Outreach

Email, LinkedIn, phone, in-app. Goal: pre-book meetings with high-value prospects.

Event week

During the Event

Execute Pre-Booked Meetings

Calendars should be 60-70% full with high-fit prospects before arriving at London.

Prioritized Conversations

Know ICP score and context for every interaction. Focus on high-value targets.

The Reality: Nearly Impossible Manually

These practices work. But 30-40% of attendees register in the last 2-3 weeks. Manual execution takes 5-7 days per batch. Teams would need to repeat identification, enrichment, scoring, and outreach continuously across email, LinkedIn, phone, and in-app. Most don't have the bandwidth.

The question isn't what to do. It's how to execute continuously at scale.
