When creating the Quirk’s Event, we knew we wanted to offer innovative, integrated networking experiences. So we looked for something special to easily connect everyone at the event.

Quirk’s is excited to introduce smart badges from Klik! These interactive badges allow for easy and fast networking all in one place. Attendees can quickly exchange information with the click of a button. By standing near the person you want to connect with, you can exchange information simply by both pressing and holding down the bottom of the badge. Bright LEDs will illuminate and flash, letting you know that the information has been exchanged. Attendees can also receive content from speaking sessions without having to wait until after the event. During a session, simply click your badge and any materials the speakers make available will download and be accessible in the app. The Klik badge puts the attendee in charge of the content they receive and connections they make!

In addition to storing your connections and event materials, the Klik app allows users to chat with other attendees and even request meetings. Attendees can view profiles of the exhibiting firms and request private meeting times with particular vendors. The app’s robust scheduler will keep track of all personal meetings and events.

Sponsorship packages are available. Contact Steve for more information!
