Yes, You Can Spot Me

Participants at the 46th Annual ICCA Congress in Thailand experienced the future of events. Each participant was outfitted with an award winning Spotme device that is part messaging tool, part people finder, part program-at-a-glance, part navigation system, part voting keypad -- and a whole lot of fun.
For the uninitiated, the annual ICCA Congress is a networking marathon where meetings industry professionals gather for 5 days to build relationships, exchange ideas and do business. "Spotme accelerates communication and networking. Our participants accomplish more in less time," says Martin Sirk, CEO of ICCA.
By the time the dust cleared and the conference was over -- Participants sent over 21,000 messages, exchanged 13,000 business cards, completed more than 2,000 electronic feedback forms, and wrote more than 1,000 notes all on their Spotme devices.
"Our delegate feedback is still coming in, but the provisional evaluations for Spotme are incredible: almost 50% of the respondents rated it as 'Excellent', and almost 40% rated it as 'Good', whilst only a single person indicated that they didn't use it during the Congress," said Sirk. "User endorsements don't come any stronger than this."
However, Spotme offered ICCA much more than networking. Spotme was a communication platform for distributing information and gathering valuable data:
- The ICCA staff substituted paper based feedback forms and the schedule-at-a-glance with electronic versions in Spotme.
- More than 70 pages of content were available in each Spotme device - including the silent auction items and 8 maps.
- During an interactive panel session, Spotme's audience response capability was used to gather live feedback from the audience.
- In education sessions, ICCA staff scanned participants that sought continuing education credits. These participants then received an electronic receipt on their Spotme indicating that they had attended the session and earned credit.
Spotme: Spotme is a wireless communication service for meetings and events between 200 and 5,000 participants. The centerpiece of the service is a wireless handheld device. Spotme provides a full range of services ranging from instant messaging, organizer communication, networking, live voting, electronic feedback forms, attendance tracking, personalized agendas, one-to-one meeting management, and sponsor benefits.
