SPIEL Essen isn’t just the biggest celebration for board game fans—it’s also one of the most important hubs for the games industry, where the global community comes together. To help our business visitors and exhibitors make even better use of their time at the show and connect with exactly the right contacts to advance their business, we’ve introduced a new feature: Our new, exclusive B2B matchmaking tool!

Here you can find the login site: B2B Matchmaking

Our goal is to bring business visitors and exhibitors together to make exactly the connections they haven’t yet made but that perfectly align with their goals. Whether designers are looking for a publisher, retailers want to discover the latest highlights, or producers need the right partner for their vision – our tool brings together what belongs together.

The benefits at a glance:

• Preparation is everything: Create your profile and find out who’s the perfect fit for your goals even before the fair begins.
• Smart search: Filter by “Seeking” or “Offering” and specific categories. This way, you’re guaranteed to connect with the right people.
• Schedule management: Network directly via chat and schedule your business meetings using the built-in calendar.
• Seamless integration: Starting September 3, the tool will be integrated directly into your SPIEL app – so you’ll always have your appointments and contacts with you, even on the show grounds.

Starting July 22, the B2B matchmaking feature can be activated with an exhibitor or business visitor ticket. B2B visitors will then be able to create their profiles, browse through other profiles, and lay the groundwork for the most successful SPIEL ever.
