The Captag smart badge is a reusable connected device that simplifies the attendee journey and the organisers’ work at events and trade shows.
It eliminates queues at conference entrances by quickly identifying authorised attendees. It also makes exchanging contacts easy: two participants simply bring their badges close together and each instantly receives the other’s virtual business card on their phone.
Fast and contactless, this kind of innovation is welcome in times of Covid, as in-person events resume.
The project is led by Captag, based in Paris, in collaboration with the engineering company Scalea (based in Lyon) and designer Tamim Daoudi (based in Strasbourg). The product got off to a strong start with 500 units and has just received a further order for 1000 units.
A great project, designed and made in France, that brought together three areas of expertise in three different locations.
