Interactive Ice Breaker for a Customer Experience Forum
Get the people in the room to interact, connect, and actually talk with each other.
What makes it a challenge?
Customer experience forums bring together some of the sharpest CX minds in the industry — but getting the people in the room to actually interact and connect? That's harder than it looks. Attendees most often end up networking with people they already know and miss out on the conversations that could change how they think.
People Stick to Who They Know
Even at industry-specific events, attendees naturally gravitate toward familiar faces. The people in the room rarely interact beyond their existing circles, which defeats the whole purpose of a forum.
CX Talk Stays Surface-Level
Without structure, conversations default to job titles and company names. The deeper CX insights — the stuff people actually came to hear — never make it into casual networking conversations.
No Natural Way to Start Conversations
Walking up to a stranger at a professional forum is uncomfortable, even for seasoned CX leaders. People need a reason to approach someone new — and most events just don't give them one.

JamBingo is an interactive ice breaker for customer experience forums — helping CX professionals skip the small talk and dive into real conversations that spark genuine connections and shared insights.

Why Customer Experience Professionals, CX Leaders & Forum Attendees Use Jam Bingo
Helping customer experience forums get attendees to interact, connect, and share.
CX-Relevant Conversations
Prompts are built around real customer experience topics — so attendees aren't just connecting as people, they're exchanging insights that make the whole forum more valuable.
Gets the Whole Room Moving
Instead of cliques forming in corners, the interactive icebreaker encourages people across the room to interact with someone new — breaking down silos between industries, company sizes, and seniority levels.
Zero Awkwardness
Nobody likes cold approaching a stranger at a professional event. Jam Bingo gives everyone a natural, low-pressure reason to walk up and start a conversation — the game is the excuse.
How to Run an Interactive Icebreaker at Your Customer Experience Forum
Four simple steps: Interactive Ice Breaker for a Customer Experience Forum!
Write CX-specific conversation prompts
Think about what would genuinely spark good conversation in a room full of CX professionals. Try prompts like: 'Find someone who has completely redesigned a customer journey this year' or 'Talk to someone whose biggest CX challenge right now is different from yours.'
Create your Jam Bingo game
Add your custom CX prompts to Jam Bingo. There are also ready-made networking templates you can pull from and adapt for your forum's specific theme or audience.
Launch it at the start of your forum
Display the Jam Bingo QR code on the main screen during registration or at the opening of the event. Give a quick 60-second explainer so everyone knows what to do.
Watch the room come alive
Attendees scan, get a prompt, and go find someone to connect with. Each completed challenge unlocks the next one — keeping the energy up and the people in the room interacting throughout the entire forum.

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.
