Event Tech Live and Rondayvoo connect exhibitors through new matchmaking tool

Event Tech Live has announced a new partnership with Rondayvoo by Event Engine to launch an exhibitor partnership matchmaking platform, Rondayvoo/Match, ahead of ETL London 2025. The platform has been designed to help exhibitors discover valuable partnership opportunities with one another, encouraging smarter networking and more meaningful commercial conversations at the show.

Launching on October 27th 2025, Rondayvoo/Match focuses on peer-to-peer partnerships rather than the traditional buyer-exhibitor model. Through seamless integration with FFAIR, the event’s exhibitor manual, participants can opt in with a single click. Once registered, exhibitors complete their full profiles and partnership wishlists, enabling the system to suggest curated matches ranked from “Excellent” to “Some Overlap,” based on shared goals, markets and collaboration potential.

Profiles allow exhibitors to showcase ideal partner types, target industries, and integration capabilities, making each introduction more relevant and commercially useful. Optional WhatsApp buttons also give users the flexibility to connect instantly for on-site coordination. The platform is gated via FFAIR to ensure data protection and authenticity, accessible only to opted-in exhibitors.

Final checks and internal walkthroughs of the integration will take place between October 20th and 25th, before the official go-live to exhibitors via email campaign on October 27th. From launch, users will be encouraged to complete their profiles early and revisit the platform as new matches appear.

“Event Tech Live is always looking for ways to add meaningful value for our exhibitors – and this platform is about unlocking partnerships that could extend far beyond the show floor,” said Adam Parry, Co-founder of Event Tech Live.

Tim Davies, Co-founder of Event Engine, added, “This collaboration with ETL is a natural fit. Rondayvoo/Match is all about surfacing the hidden potential between brands at an event — and there’s no better place for that than Event Tech Live.”

By connecting solution providers, startups, agencies, and established brands, Rondayvoo/Match strengthens ETL’s mission to help the event tech community connect, collaborate, and grow. The initiative represents a new approach to exhibitor networking, transforming it into a curated, data-driven experience that supports long-term commercial success.

Is Asana Down Today? Update on the Tool Amid AWS Outage – Hollywood Life

Asana users faced unexpected downtime on October 20, 2025, after a major Amazon Web Services (AWS) outage disrupted popular apps and tools across the internet. The project management platform was among several services impacted by the cloud provider’s technical failure, which caused login errors, syncing delays, and loading issues for teams around the world.

The outage began early Monday morning, when AWS reported a surge in “error rates and latencies” affecting multiple regions, leaving many workplace tools, including Asana, Canva, Slack, and Ring, temporarily offline. While Amazon later confirmed that the issue had been mitigated, users continued to experience sporadic interruptions throughout the day.

Below, get the latest updates on Asana’s service status and when the platform is expected to be fully back online.

What Is Asana?

According to the company’s site, Asana is described as “a leading work-management platform for human + AI collaboration,” serving more than 170,000 customers worldwide including major names like Accenture, Amazon, Anthropic and Suzuki.

Their mission: “To help humanity thrive by enabling the world’s teams to work together effortlessly.”

Is Asana Down Today?

Yes, Asana reported a widespread outage on October 20, 2025 that was tied to an underlying outage of AWS. Users around the world reported issues accessing the service, and Asana acknowledged the disruption via its status updates, linking it to the global AWS service disruption.

When Will Asana Be Back Up?

According to AWS, the core DNS and internal-network issue behind the global outage was “fully mitigated” early on October 20, 2025 (Eastern Time).

On its official status page, Asana confirmed that the “root cause has been fixed and we are monitoring recovery,” though some users in the U.S. continued to experience degraded performance shortly after. A later update reassured customers that “this incident has been resolved; error rates and latency have gone down and we’ve caught up on existing traffic.” The company also announced that a detailed postmortem report will be published within 72 hours.

What Apps and Services Were Impacted by the AWS Outage?

The AWS outage affected everything from workplace tools to entertainment and smart home devices. Popular apps like Snapchat, Reddit, Slack, Canva, Ring, and Venmo all went down or experienced major slowdowns, while gaming platforms including Fortnite and Roblox also reported connection issues. Several financial, e-commerce, and streaming services were briefly impacted as well, leaving users unable to log in or load content.

Fitness coach says ‘walking is the most underrated fat loss tool’; shares 7 cheat codes to help you burn more calories

Walking is something most of us do every day, whether for fitness, commuting, or just clearing our heads. But what if this simple activity could actually help you burn more fat and even add years to your life? Fitness coach Dan Go shares in his September 16 Instagram post 7 cheat codes to make your walks smarter and more effective.

Let’s take a look at his recommendations:

1. Japanese interval walking

Alternate 3 minutes fast with 3 minutes slow for 30 minutes. Studies show this burns more fat, lowers blood pressure, and improves VO2 max better than steady walking.

2. Incline walking

A 5% grade can boost calorie burn by nearly 50%, while a 10% grade can double it. Plus, walking uphill puts less stress on the knees since your hips and glutes take more load.

3. Walk after meals

Just 2–5 minutes of walking after eating can blunt glucose spikes by around 30%. This means fewer cravings, steadier energy, and less fat storage.

4. Fasted morning walk

Walking before breakfast, when insulin is low, encourages your body to tap into fat for fuel. Doing it outside also helps set your circadian rhythm and energises you for the day.

5. Under-the-desk treadmill

Perfect for busy schedules, pair a standing desk with an under-the-desk treadmill to sneak in steps while working. Walking meetings or voice-to-text apps can make multitasking easy.

6. Pyramid walking intervals

Burn fat while building endurance: Warm up for 5 minutes easy, then increase speed and incline slightly every 10 minutes. Finish with 4 minutes at your toughest pace, then cool down.

7. Rucking

Add 5–10% of your body weight to a backpack during your walk. This increases calorie burn and strengthens your legs, core, and bones at the same time.

“Walking is the most underrated fat-loss tool, where small tweaks can equal massive results,” says Dan.
