How does Bumpedin.com work? |
Bumpedin.com is a powerful networking tool that makes business trips more productive and enjoyable. With our proprietary matching engine, we give people the ability to search for and match with each other at any point before and during travel-people whom they ordinarily wouldn't have met. It could be on the train, plane, or at a local destination or event, waiting for a connection or while you are looking to occupy some down time. Bumpedin.com allows members to upload a profile of themselves, as well as their itineraries and contacts. Bumpedin.com will then help members "connect" via a host of different criteria ranging from the type of industry in which the member works to those who like to play golf. |
