It is thought to have started in the United States and/or the United Kingdom. Speed networking combines speed dating with business networking. Speed networking is often referenced as a derivative of speed dating, the round-robin approach to meeting potential suitors first developed by Rabbi Yaacov Deyo in the late 1990s. Networkers are generally seeking exposure to new markets and/or expanding their pool of vendors.

During an interaction, participants share their professional backgrounds and business goals. Participants greet each other in a series of brief exchanges during a set period of time. Speed networking basically involves participants gathering together to exchange information. Speed networking (or speed business meeting) is a meeting format designed to accelerate business contacts.
