Matched! by JCI

Welcome to JCI Matched !

Unique and Proven Concept

JCI Matched is our annual networking event where we offer 200 business leaders / Young Leaders a unique concept to meet and exchange ideas.

It is a combination of “Come Dine With Me” and “Married at First Sight,” but in the business-to-business segment. Promising entrepreneurs are ‘matched’ with each other in the hope that they will achieve great success together.

Through a brief questionnaire, a complete personality scan of each individual participant is conducted. Assisted by the software from Thalento and inspired by focus points, a JCI jury forms 100 pairs based on psychological and economic criteria, ensuring they perfectly complement each other: in personality, ambition, and more.

During a delightful three-course dinner lasting about two hours, the participating entrepreneurs discover how they can strengthen, accelerate, broaden, and complete each other.

!NEW! Flagship Tables - Meet a top entrepreneur

This year, we are introducing a new element to our proven concept of JCI Matched.

In addition to the one-on-one matching, participants can also be matched to one of our two flagship tables based on their personality scan.

Each table will bring together 8 participants, including one top entrepreneur. The names of the top entrepreneurs will be announced soon.

In short...

  • Discover yourself with a personality scan

  • Connect with your perfect match

  • Experience an evening full of inspiration with entrepreneurs and young leaders

  • Be inspired and inspire others

  • Enjoy a delightful three-course meal

  • Extend the evening until midnight with music and a drink

  • Curious about your match? Sign up quickly below, as places are limited!

Thanks to the inspirational edition Matched! by JCI Limburg, we are elevating the concept towards a national level. This project also is in line with the JCI RISE initiative, to impact economy and businesses, so no need to say we are very keen on launching the project in the center of Belgium: Brussels.

On the 3th October 2024 we will host a new edition of Matched! by JCI (inspired by JCI Limburg ).

  • Our target audience are entrepreneurs or entrepreneurial people with that right mindset.
  • Also, we will find partners that want to connect their company with the unique concept.
