Smart Badges

Event participants can now easily exchange contact information with the click of a button on their electronic smart badges. 

By using these bluetooth hardware badges, you can receive a 10x increase in participant connections. Other benefits include rich insights, like heat maps showing where connections are taking place on the show floor, plus session tracking so you (and your sponsors) know which participants attended which sessions.

Side Event Management

Make your big, multi-day shows feel more intimate with side events. In addition, give your exhibitors and sponsors even more value by allowing them to launch these ‘side’, ‘umbrella’ or ‘satellite’ events themselves.

Your sponsors simply submit their own side events from the Sponsor / Exhibitor Management Portal. This allows them to manage their own guest list and enables you to control the side events created. 

Organizers can review the events before they’re published to attendees, assess the RSVP flow, capacity and more. 

Furthermore, sponsors and exhibitors can review, accept and scan the badges of side event participants, generating valuable, intent-based leads.

The feature is fully integrated into the Grip platform. This results in a seamless attendee experience on mobile and web where they see a dedicated ‘Side events’ agenda, which sits alongside the main agenda.

Speaker & Session Management

Easily manage all your speakers and sessions in one place, without the usual back-and-forth.

Ahead of your event, collect release form signatures and have your speakers submit their details via a magic link email, saving time for everyone involved.

When ready, easily add speaker and sessions details to your event website via our widget. With the event in full swing, auto-generate ‘session cards’ for social media and on-stage promotion, for maximum engagement.
