Fun, Interactive Networking Activity for Company All-Hands
So Team Members Can Meet With People They Don't Usually Work With.
What makes it a challenge?
At most all-hands meetings, people sit with their own teams, grab lunch with familiar faces, and leave without talking to anyone outside their department. The result? Silos persist, collaboration suffers, and the 'company culture' feels like a collection of isolated groups rather than one team.
People Stick to Their Teams
It's human nature. At large gatherings, employees gravitate toward the people they already know — usually their immediate team — missing the entire point of bringing everyone together.
Cross-Department Conversations Don't Happen
Without intentional structure, a marketer never talks to an engineer. A salesperson never meets someone from product. Valuable connections never form.
All-Hands Feels Like a Lecture
When the only structured part of an all-hands is presentations, the 'networking' portion becomes awkward free time where most people just check email or hide in corners.

Four simple steps: Fun, Interactive Networking Activity for Company All-Hands!

Launch during networking time
Display the QR code on the main screen. Give a 60-second explanation: 'Scan this, find people you don't know, complete squares. First to bingo wins bragging rights (and maybe a prize).'

Common Questions About Jam Bingo
Does the game end when there is a winner?
Jam Bingo will not stop for everyone else when there is a winner. When someone completes all their prompts, their phone will show the place they finished in (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, etc).
How long does a game of Jam Bingo last?
The more prompts you add, the longer your Jam Bingo game will be. On average, it lasts anywhere from 10 minutes to over an hour. When you create a Jam Bingo game, it will give you an estimated duration based on your number of prompts.
Is there a limit on the number of participants?
There is no limit on the number of players who can join your game of Jam Bingo.
Can I customize the questions/prompts?
Yes, you can add your own prompts/questions to your Jam Bingo.
