Your badge doesn't have to just identify you—it can help you connect, engage, and build relationships at events. Here's how to make the most of NFC-powered badges.
Before the Event
Prepare your badge profile with accurate contact info. Many platforms let you add LinkedIn, website, or portfolio links. This makes connections more valuable.
At the Event
Look for people with visible badges and tap to connect. Don't just tap randomly— look for opportunities where connections make sense: same industry, complementary skills.
After the Event
Check your connections dashboard and send personalized follow-ups. Reference what you discussed and suggest next steps. The data from your taps helps you remember.
