This is the color of our global partners. The deep blue color of the Foundation CI is inherited and used for badges and host markings in the grid.

01 / THE STARTING POINTWhat should we make?
Hundreds of meetings in two days
The work that people did with their hands
I left it to the system.
The Foundation's partnering events attract two types of participants. It is a domestic bio company supported by partners such as global pharmaceutical companies and investment companies, and foundations. The process of finding each other, conveying interest, and setting up a short meeting went back and forth between email and Excel.
We've grouped the process into one flow. Corporate directories and bookmarks, cross-company chat, meeting requests and acceptance, non-overlapping automatic schedules, and administrator bulk matching and table assignment all on one platform.

Partners and participating companies
only see each other's lists.
Even on the same screen, the companies you see and the things you can do are different depending on your role.
The two flows meet at the meeting table.

03 / COLOR & STATELet color tell the role and status
The foundation's blue was divided into two
as the role color.
We selected deep blue and light blue from KDDF's CI Blue and applied them to partners and participating companies, respectively. Whether it's your login badge, admin grid, or chat history, you can tell who's who just by looking at the colors.
The more functions a service has, the more important the status color is. Wait, Confirm, Reject, and Cancel were designated as amber, green, and red so that they could be distinguished by color before reading the sentence, and were written with the same meaning on all screens.
Attendee
This is the color of the participating company. It is the same blue color, but the brightness has been increased so that it can be distinguished at a glance.
Buttons and My Speech Bubble
It only writes to elements that the user clicks on, such as sending, saving, and sending requests, and messages that you send.
background for reading
This is where long company introductions and schedules are placed. I made the white color of the card appear slightly higher than the background.
STATE COLORS
There are four states that are read before the sentence.
The life cycle of a request begins with waiting and ends with either confirmation, rejection, or cancellation. The same color means the same thing on any screen.
- PendingA request has been sent and waiting for a response from the other party
- AcceptedThe other party accepted and the schedule was set
- DeclinedThe other party declined with a reason
- CanceledAfter confirmation, it was canceled and the slot became empty again

A filter that leaves only those in my field .
The list changes instantly as you select a therapeutic area, modality, and development stage. Each company can have multiple values, so if any one is correct, it will be displayed. Below is a demo created with a fictitious sample company.
Save companies of interest as hearts. The saved list is divided into two tabs, “Companies I’m interested in” and “Companies I’m interested in,” so you don’t miss out on the interests of others.

06 / FEATURE · REQUEST & AUTO SCHEDULINGOnce you accept, it will find an empty time
The system chooses the non-overlapping time
instead of the person.
If the person receiving the meeting request accepts it, the platform will find a slot that is free for both companies, has not been blocked as unable to attend, and has no other meetings at the same time, and confirms it immediately. Duplicate requests between the same two companies are prevented from the beginning.
If you want to change the time, it will automatically reselect, or both companies will manually pick from a list of empty slots. For cancellation, leave a reason and pass it on to the other party.

09 / DESIGN EXPLORATIONCompany detail screen, three directions
introduction and conversation
How do I put them on one screen ?
The company detail page is the most-visited screen on this platform. To ensure that reading the introduction and starting a conversation do not interfere with each other, I drew and compared three structures.
The final plan is the third. The structure of broadening the introduction when reading and broadening the conversation when speaking brings both actions to life.
A / MODAL CHATDraw
Dialog floating above the list
Launch a chat window right from the card without leaving the list. It's fast, but it's difficult to read the introduction and have a conversation, and on mobile, the window covers the screen.
Suitable for list-centric / overlapping windows / short conversationsB / PROFILE FIRSTDraw
Conversation following the introduction
Read through the introduction and then start the conversation below. The flow was natural, but replies had to go all the way down the screen, and the conversation got buried in long profiles.
Reading-centric / Vertical flow / Low conversation discoverabilityC / TWO PANELSConfirmed draft
Two panels that exchange width when reading and speaking
On the left is the introduction, and on the right is the dialogue. Normally, the introduction is broad, and the moment your hand touches the input window, the conversation becomes wider. You can talk while referring to the introduction, and a record of the meeting request is also left in the same place.
Maintain both actions / Width switching 0.5 seconds / Mobile switches to portrait10 / IN YOUR HANDSAt an event, the screen in your hand is everything
Walking between the tables
checking for the next meeting.
On the day of the event, participants will not open their laptops. The menu slides out from the right, the two panels turn vertically, and you can flip through the schedule with your finger so you can check today's schedule, table number, and just-arrived messages with one hand.
