- Your name and organization
- The topic or challenge you want to discuss
- Your preferred time window during the event
- Any specific products or services you are curious about
Pre-scheduling a conversation ensures you get uninterrupted time with the right person on our team rather than waiting for a chance encounter on the floor.

What topics can you discuss with Openindex at Data Expo?
At Data Expo Utrecht, you can discuss a wide range of topics with us related to search technology, data collection, and digital infrastructure. Our expertise spans both technical implementation and strategic data use, so conversations can be as high-level or as detailed as your situation requires.

- Site search solutions: How to add a powerful, relevant search engine to your website or application using a single line of JavaScript

- Search infrastructure: Implementing or optimizing Solr, Elasticsearch, or Lucene-based systems at scale
- GDPR-compliant data collection: Ensuring your data extraction practices meet Dutch and European legal requirements
If your question does not fit neatly into one of these areas, that is fine too. Many of our best conversations start with an open-ended challenge rather than a predefined topic.
What should you prepare before meeting Openindex at the expo?
Before meeting us at Data Expo Utrecht, the most valuable preparation you can do is to clearly define the problem you are trying to solve. The more specific you can be about your current situation, the faster we can move from general explanation to practical advice during your time together.
A few things worth thinking through before the meeting:
- Define your data challenge: Are you struggling with data quality, data volume, search relevance, or integration speed? Knowing this helps focus the conversation.
- Understand your current setup: What tools or systems are you already using? What is working and what is not?
- Know your scale requirements: How many URLs, records, or queries does your solution need to handle? This shapes what architecture makes sense.
- Identify your decision-making timeline: Are you in early exploration or ready to move forward? This helps us tailor what we share with you.
- Prepare your questions: Write down two or three specific questions you want answered. This keeps the conversation on track even if time runs short.
You do not need to arrive with a fully formed brief or technical specification. Our team is experienced at asking the right questions to surface what matters most. Coming prepared with context and curiosity is enough to make the meeting genuinely useful.
