Event organizers are are seeking new ways

to engage individuals, to demonstrate value,

to motivate action,

and deliver information, drive repeat business

Experiential is Good

But don’t seek to measure it

Or to make any sense of the measurement

Most events just need to address simple questions

How can I get 95% paticipation in my suveys?

Who are the people walking away with my brochures? How can I engage with them?

How can I obtain more effective visibility for my sponsors?

How can I boost event mobile app usage from an aveage of 13% to over 80%?

Answering such questions as:

How can I boost oveall visitor satisfaction by 20% or more?

What is NFC – Near Field Communication?

•  Operates on the same principle as contactless smart cards and RFID tags (e.g. access control badges)

•  A reader initiates an RF communications and captures data from the card (or programs data into the card)

•  With NFC, a phone can be either a reader or a card
