ASSIGN PEOPLE TO TABLE IN EACH ROUND SO THAT EACH PERSON HAS MET THE LARGEST NUMBER OF UNIQUE PEOPLE

  • Instead of meeting just one person at a time, participants, typically 4-10 people at one table meet for sessions (rounds) that last a couple of minutes each.
  • Only one person at a table speaks at a time. When everybody at each table has finished, the session ends.
  • Everyone moves on to the next, pre-assigned table to meet a brand-new group of people.
