Nextech3D.ai’s Eventdex selected for 2026 CT Business Matchmaker
About this episode
Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share that the company’s AI-powered Eventdex platform has been selected to deliver AI-based matchmaking services for the 2026 CT Business Matchmaker, a well-established small business procurement and networking event.
The event, hosted in partnership with the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), will take place on March 5, 2026 at the Connecticut Convention Center. It is designed to connect small businesses with federal, state, and local government agencies, as well as major prime contractors.
Nextech3D.ai’s AI-driven one-on-one matchmaking technology will power the event’s signature pre-scheduled 12-minute meetings, which serve as the central feature of the conference. The platform uses artificial intelligence to optimize connections between buyers and suppliers, helping ensure that participants are matched based on procurement needs, capabilities, and strategic fit.
Gappelberg explained that the deployment of AI matchmaking is intended to enhance the efficiency and impact of these meetings, strengthening both national and regional supply chains. By facilitating more targeted and productive introductions, the system aims to unlock meaningful procurement opportunities for small businesses seeking to work with government entities—widely recognized as the world’s largest buyer of goods and services.
Through this engagement, Nextech3D.ai continues to expand the footprint of its Eventdex platform in large-scale business and government networking environments, positioning AI as a critical enabler of smarter, more effective procurement connections.
