Step 1: Navigate. The re:Invent event is available now in the AWS Events mobile app (download the app today on Google Play or Apple App Store). Use your full conference pass registration credentials to log in, and then select the More menu and then PeerTalk.
Step 2: Onboard. Opt in to the terms and conditions and complete the onboarding steps. Only after these steps are complete, will you be added to the PeerTalk platform and will be discoverable to other re:Invent attendees.
Step 3: Discover. The Recommended page contains a library of potential connections based on similar interests. You also have the option to search and filter through all other attendees who have opted in by selecting Attendees. Pro tip: Select the star icon on user profiles to add them to your Favorites list.
Step 4: Chat. Use the chat bubble on the bottom-right corner of your screen to start a chat or reply to one-on-one and group chat conversations. You have the option to accept or deny chat requests prior to chatting. To block a conversation, select the ellipses on the top-right corner.
Step 5: Schedule. To schedule a meeting, select the profile of the attendee with whom you wish to meet. This attendee will be classified as the required participant, and you will have the option to add two optional participants at a later step. The attendee you are inviting is referred to as a required participant because they must accept the request in order for the meeting to be officially scheduled. If they decline, then the meeting is canceled for everyone. Select the Request a Meeting button and proceed with selecting a date, time, location, and up to two optional participants. Finally, enter a meeting title and a description of the conversation, topics, or reason.
Meeting participants can accept, reject, or cancel meetings through the PeerTalk platform. Confirmed meetings appear in your AWS Events mobile app calendar and are removed if they are canceled within PeerTalk.
Step 6: Repeat. The PeerTalk platform closes when re:Invent ends on Friday, December 3, 2022. Make sure to connect with your PeerTalk network through LinkedIn to keep in touch beyond the event.
You can remove yourself from the PeerTalk platform at any time. To remove yourself, opt out via the PeerTalk Profile page. Once you opt out, your PeerTalk meetings are automatically canceled.
