| Step or exception | Required behaviour | Blueprint |
|---|---|---|
| Browse | Approved summaries, filters by country and category, shareable URLs; nothing gated | pp. 5, 10 |
| Register | Verified email; create company or accept an owner-issued invite; an email domain never grants access to an existing company; duplicate-company support reveals no member | pp. 4, 10 |
| Profile | Required fields, evidence, revenue band with financial year, attestation; editing business content creates a new version | p. 4 |
| Freshness | Confirm every 30 days (proposed default); reminders at grace days 7 and 13 (proposed); discovery and new introductions pause at due plus 14 days; confirming restores access | p. 7 |
| Discover | Eligible companies see member details and a suggested fit with reasons; a score is never a probability of success | p. 7 |
| Pitch | Concise fit statement, proposed next step, exact fields permitted; one open interest per company and opportunity | p. 6 |
| Introduce | Owner accepts or declines; both approve the contact package; release once; withdrawal before release releases nothing; a pending consent request expires after 14 days (proposed default) | pp. 6, 15 |
| Follow through | Participants own meetings and negotiations; track introduced, discussion held, pilot, deal, no fit, no response | p. 6 |
| Sessions and events | Register while eligible; capacity, waitlist, reminders; existing registrations stay valid if a profile later becomes overdue unless an administrative safety hold applies, which must give a clear reason or support route; recordings and speaker material are published only with permission and are never a condition of participation | p. 9 |
| Value and contribution | Company-reported outcome; only the owner confirms value; contribution is a separate opt-in and never an access upgrade | p. 8 |
Retained from 1.3: a respondent’s pitch is isolated from other respondents (B cannot see C); a decline leaves the opportunity open; revocation blocks future access only; repeats never create duplicates. An introduction is not acceptance of commercial terms and not a contract.
