Event networking platform

There are two ways. Ask the Kohtaa team to set it up: send your event website and any material you have, and we build the event page, agenda and sessions within 5 business days (weekends and Finnish public holidays don't count). You review it and publish it yourself. Or set it up yourself: creating the event takes minutes, and a checklist shows what to do next.

We can set the event up for you. Once it is published, its page gives you a ready invitation text in English and Finnish, a QR code, an A4 poster and an opening slide, and attendees can share a card that says they're coming. From the same event page you email your attendees, see who has joined, invite people by uploading a CSV from your registration system, and download a report after the event.

Open the link or scan the QR code, sign in with an email link, Google or LinkedIn, and add a name and a short profile. There is no app to download: Kohtaa runs in the browser. Then they can see who is coming, send a short note to the people they want to meet (or book a meeting, if your event uses booked meetings), and confirm with We met once they have met.

Yes, it is built for GDPR from the start. The application and the database run on Hetzner in Helsinki, Finland, so attendee data is stored only in the EU, with no external database subprocessor. For a pilot where your organization collects no personal data itself, Kohtaa is the data controller and no data processing agreement is needed; if your organization needs the controller seat, one is available on request. Attendees can download their own data or delete their account at any time, and Kohtaa's analytics set no cookies.

Kohtaa is priced per event: EUR 100 for up to 100 attendees, EUR 250 for up to 250 and EUR 500 for up to 500, or an annual plan at the price of 5 events for unlimited events of that size. You create your event, order from the event page, and your organization is invoiced. Small community events of up to 30 people can apply for our Community tier.

Choose the tier for the number of people you expect. The price is per tier, not per person, and Kohtaa needs no minimum number of attendees: search, Get in touch and We met work the same at a small event as at a large one. If more people join than you planned for, automatic upgrade (off unless you tick it when you order) moves the event to the next tier, up to 500 attendees, and you are invoiced for the tier the event ends at.

If people come to your event to meet each other, yes. Kohtaa was built in the Nordic startup ecosystem and is designed for any professional networking event: innovation days, academic conferences, alumni events, industry meetups, and government or institutional events. Each event runs either as open networking, where attendees get in touch and confirm they met, or with booked meetings in set time slots.
