Sphere App vs Boardwave

A geo-enabled networking app that helps financial services professionals to make more valuable professional connections in less time. Users can discover new connections, host and attend relevant industry events and engage in a supportive community. How to use Sphere: 1) Create a profile – remember this isn’t LinkedIn, so we want to know about the non-professional you too. Include your hobbies and interests to maximise the potential of being matched with like-minded professionals. 2) Navigate to ‘Set Sphere Suggestions’ on the central S button and select your preferences. Sphere App will do a lot of the thinking for you when it comes to networking, working hard in the background to suggest relevant users that we think you'll benefit from connecting with. So make sure to spend a bit of time setting up your preferences so we can make our suggestions as helpful as possible. 3) Events – browse, host and attend industry events. 4) Use our 'Connect Now' feature to easily connect with a group of people in a matter of seconds. Yes, you can finally wave goodbye to clunky business cards and awkward QR code exchanges.
