Here is how to find lists of professionals in a specific industry, from given countries or regions.
1) Start with one of the words: members, list, participants, attend (etc.)
(Note: Do NOT combine these words with an OR statement).
2) Add two to three specific country email domain extensions such as “de”, “nl”, “au”, “za”, etc.
3) Optionally, add a few phone codes such as 44, 31, etc.
4) Add one or two job titles or industry key phrases.
Here are some examples:
- members “nl” “co.uk” “de” 44 31 49 “supply chain”
- members “nl” “co.uk” “de” 44 31 49 “industrial engineer”
- list “nl” “co.uk” “de” 44 31 49 “industrial engineer”
- list participants “id” “sg” 63 66 sustainable development
Repeat multiple variations of 1)-4) until you see some interesting results.
What you can do next:
Work with the lists: narrow them down to the “right” professionals by filtering and cross-reference to find out more about those that are promising.
These searches are simple, do not use any advanced Boolean operators, yet they can be quite efficient.
