About 5 Minute Networking® Event Facilitation Software
The cornerstone of iSpeed Network International’s speed network event facilitation system is the 5 Minute Networking® software, which is
the most efficient system for the facilitation of speed network events. At the heart of the 5 Minute Networking® system is the patentpending
Event Facilitation Software. The software maximizes the results for event participants and minimizes the work involved in planning
and facilitating events. The system also includes an interactive website (www.5MinuteNetworking.com) and a variety of techniques and
materials that optimize the planning, implementation, and online follow-up processes. Launching soon My5MinuteNetworking™, will
further enhance the online follow-up and increase the value of event attendance. 5 Minute Networking® licenses its system to a variety of
organizations, businesses and individuals in order to increase the effectiveness of networking events, generate revenue, integrate
members and promote employee communication. 5 Minute Networking® events are held at conferences, trade shows, monthly mixers,
business networking, corporate team building, fundraising and social networking events.
It has been said that, "Necessity is the mother of invention," and that can be said for the birth of 5 Minute Networking® Event
Facilitation Software. Invented by sister-duo Sonia English and Melissa English when serendipitously while one sister kept coming
away from "speed dating" events with handfuls of contacts for the sisters' Web design business, and the other was leaving
conventional networking events feeling that something was missing. Putting their heads together, they came up with the 5 Minute
Networking® Event Facilitation Software, and have blazing the rapid networking trail ever since.
