Connecting talent with the tech industry
IT Career Expo 2025 is an anchor career fair in Chișinău, organized by the Tekwill Academy Organisation.
It brings together students, young professionals, and IT companies to explore job opportunities, meet recruiters, and build valuable professional connections.
Valuable connections lost after brief interactions
At career fairs, students and companies often struggle to exchange contacts efficiently. Most interactions happen briefly at crowded booths.
Because of this friction, valuable connections were frequently lost when attendees forgot to follow up or manually save contact information.
A digital networking platform connecting the floor
For the first time, the organizer implemented a comprehensive networking app to facilitate connections.
Cardneto provided instant contact exchange, a clear event agenda, and rich analytics so attendees and vendors could engage without the hassle of paper cards.
171 contacts exchanged and 43 meetings secured
The app helped participants connect more easily and significantly improved the networking experience. Over 200 attendees downloaded the app.
This shift to digital networking resulted in 171 successful contact exchanges and 43 structured meetings scheduled right on the platform.
