With the Nexus Dealmakers Summit set to go in less than a week, the custom-tailored networking platform went live this week.
Attendees are encouraged to log into the event platform ASAP to block off free time, set up profiles, and begin setting up meetings.
Here’s a written guide to using the platform, Jublia, alongside the LendIt video guide. Before we get to Miami, attendees have to:
- Add profile photo
- Add profile description
- Confirm meeting availability
- Set time zone to the US – New York (EST)
- Set up notifications
- Optionally, Sync to calendar
Let’s find out how
By now, the LendIt team should have sent out an email to attendees with login details that looks like:
https://e.jublia.com/LendItFintechNexus/(account number)
The address opens to the Explore landing page, where you can find quick links, a welcome video, sponsor announcements, recommended meetings, and upcoming summit events. You can also find the venue floorplan.
To find the profile section, click the upper right. Then> my profile.
The platform also has a mobile app that attendees can download to stay up to date on the go. After setting up your web app platform, be sure to
download our mobile app, Nexus 2022, available on iOS
and Android.
Update Profile
Here, you can upload a profile picture, add a homepage or web platform, and update business info with the edit buttons. Do this as soon as you log in to Nexus to ensure recommended meetings fit your preferences.
Schedule
Next, Use the blue quick links menu on the left side of the screen to get to the My Schedule page. Make sure to update the time blocks with availability for meetings. By default, all slots are set to “available” in yellow. To cross off a time slot, click on it, and it should turn grey and show an “X” mark.
Make sure to set the time zone to US NYC EST, set up notifications to keep on top of events and meetings, and optionally set up the platform to sync with your calendar. Notifications can be edited to update 15 minutes before events and send reminders by text message.

The agenda tablets users check out the extracurricular events at Nexus, like morning yoga. Click “Add to schedule” to reserve a spot.
Interests and Search
Before jumping right into meetings, make sure your interests are updated. Click the “Meet” tab on the left menu to ensure the matching service is working as it should. The meeting software sets up match recommendations based on shared “interests” like industry, region, investment amount, and more. Ensure to update the settings you provided when registering for Nexus with “Update Interests.”
Attendees can also find People and companies through the search system, by the categories “Verticle of Business” or “Regions of Operations.”
Nexus Meetings
Finally, the bread and butter: Find the “meet+” icon on a profile to schedule meetings. In the meeting invitation, you can add a personal note and choose a topic of common interest to break the ice. If they accept the meeting, they will confirm a time, date, and table assignment.
