How to Set Up Meeting Types
The Meeting Types feature allows organizers to define how meetings will be conducted during an event. This helps participants choose whether they want to meet virtually or in person, based on event setup and availability.
Types of Meetings
There are two primary meeting types:
1. Virtual Meetings
- Meetings conducted via a virtual link.
- Ideal for remote participants.
2. Physical Meetings
- Meetings conducted at a defined location (room, booth, etc.).
- Used for in-person interactions at physical or hybrid events.

- Navigate to Networking → Meetings.
- Open the Meeting Types section.
- Click Add Meeting Type.

- Enter the following details:
- Meeting Type Name (e.g., Virtual Call, Booth Meeting, In-Person Meeting)

Default Meeting Types (Based on Event Type)
When an event is created, the system automatically adds meeting types:
| Event Type | Default Meeting Types |
