Business meetings are at the heart of every successful event, fostering valuable connections and driving meaningful conversations. In fact, 68% of B2B marketers believe that live events generate the most leads, making them a crucial strategy for business growth.

However, a common challenge remains—how can organizers ensure that scheduled meetings actually happen and create a lasting impact? Without clear tracking, it's difficult to measure success or optimize future strategies.

Jublia’s Meeting Fulfillment Analytics solves this by offering data-driven insights into meeting success rates, ensuring that every business meeting contributes to an event’s overall impact.

Understanding Business Meeting Fulfillment

A fulfilled business meeting goes beyond just being scheduled—it must take place as planned, with engaged participants and meaningful outcomes.

Different types of business meetings require tracking to assess their success:

• Scheduled 1:1 Meetings – Pre-arranged connections between attendees, exhibitors, or sponsors.
• Walk-in Meetings – Spontaneous meetings that happen on-site.
• Networking Sessions – Group interactions that facilitate business opportunities.

With Meeting Fulfillment Analytics, organizers can track, measure, and optimize these different meeting types, ensuring that every interaction adds value to the event experience.

Why Meeting Fulfillment Analytics Matters

When it comes to event networking, simply scheduling meetings isn’t enough—what truly matters is whether those meetings actually take place and deliver value. A well-organized event with a high fulfillment rate leads to better engagement, stronger connections, and ultimately, a more successful experience for attendees and exhibitors alike.

Low meeting fulfillment rates don’t just affect individual networking experiences—they can also damage the trust and credibility of your event brand. When attendees consistently face missed or unproductive meetings, they may perceive the event as disorganized or ineffective, making them less likely to return in the future. A poor fulfillment rate can also impact sponsorship value, as exhibitors and partners expect meaningful connections that drive business outcomes.

However, many event organizers struggle with no-shows, last-minute cancellations, and unoptimized scheduling, which can reduce the effectiveness of their networking programs. Meeting Fulfillment Analytics helps by:

• Clearly defining a successful meeting based on check-ins, ratings, and engagement.
• Providing deeper insights into meeting trends and attendee behavior.
• Fixing past limitations in event analytics, improving accuracy and usability.

When meetings are fulfilled successfully, they boost an event’s reputation and build long-term trust with exhibitors, sponsors, and attendees. On the other hand, poor meeting fulfillment can lead to dissatisfaction and negatively impact an event’s credibility. 

That’s why Jublia introduced Meeting Fulfillment Analytics—a data-driven approach to tracking, analyzing, and optimizing meetings to ensure they happen as planned and create real impact.

Key Features of Meeting Fulfillment Analytics

To address the challenges of tracking meeting success, our analytics platform provides a suite of intelligent features. These tools help event organizers monitor, analyze, and act on real-time engagement data, ensuring that scheduled meetings translate into meaningful interactions. Let’s take a closer look at the key functionalities that drive better fulfillment rates.

Meeting Success Tracking

Jublia’s system tracks fulfillment rates based on multiple data points, including:

• Check-ins – Verifying attendee presence.
• Scans – Tracking badge or QR code scans.
• Post-meeting Ratings – Measuring meeting quality through feedback.

With real-time tracking, organizers no longer have to rely on assumptions—every meeting is measurable.

Visual Analytics for Clear Insights

Data visualization simplifies the complexity of meeting analytics by turning raw numbers into intuitive visual insights, making it easier for event organizers to identify trends, spot inefficiencies, and optimize future strategies.

Sankey Diagram

One of the key features of Meeting Fulfillment Analytics is its ability to present data in a visually intuitive way. For instance, the Sankey diagram offers a clear representation of meeting flow—from total scheduled meetings to their final fulfillment status.

In a Sankey diagram, the width of each flow represents the volume of meetings passing through different stages. For example, if 80 meetings were scheduled, the diagram might show how they split into different meeting locations (e.g., booths or tables), then further break down into categories like “mutual meetings,” “admin-managed,” or “unclassified.” Finally, the rightmost section illustrates the outcome—fulfilled, unfulfilled, or partially fulfilled meetings. This makes it easy to pinpoint gaps, such as a high rate of unfulfilled meetings, allowing organizers to take corrective actions.

Pie Chart

Pie charts break down fulfillment rates by categories, helping organizers easily identify patterns. The data helps event organizers assess networking effectiveness, optimize scheduling strategies, and implement improvements for future events. A high fulfilled rate reflects a well-orchestrated event, whereas unfulfilled and unclassified meetings highlight areas that may need better attendee communication or logistical adjustments.

Understanding the Fulfillment Rules

To accurately measure the success of scheduled meetings, Meeting Fulfillment Analytics follows a structured set of rules to classify each interaction. These classifications help event organizers track whether meetings were successfully conducted, partially completed, or missed entirely.

• Fulfilled Meetings: A meeting is considered fulfilled when both attendees check in, at least one participant scans the other (including scans by colleagues), or at least one provides a rating without marking the other as a no-show.
• Partially Fulfilled Meetings: If only one attendee checks in, or if one attendee provides a rating while marking the other as a no-show, the meeting is recorded as partially fulfilled.
• Unfulfilled Meetings: When both attendees mark each other as no-shows, the meeting is classified as unfulfilled.
• Unclassified Meetings: If no attendance activity is recorded—meaning no scans, check-ins, or ratings—the meeting falls into the unclassified category.

By categorizing meetings this way, event organizers gain valuable insights into engagement patterns, allowing them to take proactive steps to reduce no-shows and enhance attendee experiences.

Deeper Analysis for Better Decision-Making

Meeting Fulfillment Analytics goes beyond basic attendance tracking, offering valuable insights that help event organizers optimize their strategies. By leveraging this data, organizers can:

• Understand Meeting Success Trends – Gain a clear view of how many meetings were fully completed, partially fulfilled, or unfulfilled, allowing for a better assessment of event effectiveness.
• Pinpoint Areas for Improvement – Identify patterns in unfulfilled or partially fulfilled meetings to refine scheduling, attendee engagement, or session formats.
• Optimize Future Event Planning – Use historical data to make informed decisions that enhance networking opportunities and increase overall satisfaction for attendees.
• Identify Bottlenecks in the Meeting Journey – The Sankey diagram highlights where meetings tend to break down, whether due to scheduling conflicts, lack of engagement, or other factors. Recognizing these patterns enables organizers to refine their approach and remove obstacles in future events.
