Every MERIT user has a personal QR code tied to their profile. At industry days, conferences, or MERIT matchmaking events, you can exchange contact information instantly — no business cards, no manual entry. Just scan and connect.

Where to find your QR code

Go to Networking in the left navigation. The Quick Connect card shows your personal QR code, with options to view it full size or scan someone else’s code.

Connecting with someone at an event

1

Open the scanner

In Networking, click Scan QR Code and point the scanner at the other person’s MERIT QR code. You can also show your own QR code and let them scan you.
2

Confirm the connection

After the scan, review the profile preview and confirm that you want to send a connection request.
3

Wait for acceptance

The other person will see the request in their Received tab. Until they accept, the request appears in your Sent tab.
4

They accept

Once they accept, you both appear in each other’s Connected tab. The connection record includes the event context if the scan happened at a MERIT event.

Managing your connections

The Networking section has three tabs:
  • Connected — mutual, accepted connections. You can view contact details, message the person, or remove the connection.
  • Sent — requests you’ve sent that are still pending. You can cancel a pending request from this tab.
  • Received — incoming requests waiting for your response. Accept or decline each one.
You can switch between list and grid views. The page also includes recent conversations, so you can return to follow-ups without leaving Networking.

What gets stored

When you connect with someone, MERIT stores the connection between the two profiles and shows available profile/contact details for that person. Depending on what the person has added to their profile, this can include:
  • Name, title, company, and profile photo
  • Email, phone, website, or LinkedIn details when available
  • Where you met or which MERIT event created the connection
  • When the connection was added
Either party can remove a connection at any time from the Connected tab.
After an event, check your Received tab promptly — connections are most valuable when you follow up while the conversation is still fresh.
