Abstract
A meeting system facilitates spontaneous social encounter between users with a meeting server. The meeting server obtains calendar data, user preferences, and an organization chart associated with each user of a plurality of users. The meeting server selects a first user and a second user for a social encounter based on the calendar data, user preferences, and roles in the organization chart. The meeting server prompts a first user device associated with the first user, and a second user device associated with the second user, for a social encounter. Responsive to obtaining acceptances from the first user and the second user, the meeting server facilitates the social encounter between the first user and the second user.
