Speed up your badge pick-up lines by accepting QR code scans for check-in. This helps your attendees retrieve their badge quickly.
Gosec is a leading yearly cybersecurity conference in Montréal, Québec.
It offers two days of rich learning and networking opportunities for cybersecurity professionals.
GoSec, one of the most influential cybersecurity conferences globally, faced a series of operational hurdles as it expanded its hybrid event format. With a growing number of both in-person and virtual attendees, the event’s logistics became more complex, resulting in several key challenges.
GoSec required more in-depth data and analytics to understand attendee behavior, improve engagement, and plan better for future events.
Badgeit.io developed a comprehensive, tech-driven solution specifically tailored to address each of GoSec’s challenges.
Our streamlined event registration solution offers the following features:
We implemented a state-of-the-art QR code system where each attendee was pre-assigned a unique code. Upon arrival, attendees scanned their QR code to complete the registration process in less than 20 seconds, dramatically reducing wait times and queues.
To solve the badge error issue, we deployed on-site self-service kiosks. These allowed attendees to make real-time corrections (e.g., name or company information) before printing their badges on demand. This reduced the need for pre-printing and increased accuracy.
Our system automatically filtered out virtual attendees from the badge-printing process. As a result, it made it easier for event organizers to focus on managing in-person attendees while ensuring virtual participants were engaged through separate workflows.
Badgeit.io introduced advanced tracking features to monitor badge usage and prevent misuse. Reprints were controlled, and access to restricted areas was tightly monitored to ensure only authorized attendees could enter.
QR codes embedded in badges enabled attendees to easily exchange contact information, network, and set up meetings. Effectively, this facilitated more meaningful connections without the need for physical business cards or complex apps.
We provided GoSec with a detailed analytics dashboard, offering insights into attendee behavior, session popularity, booth engagement, and overall event participation. This data helped GoSec make informed decisions for future events.
The customizable, on-demand badges helped GoSec maintain a cohesive and professional event identity, enhancing both the aesthetic and the functionality of the event.
Badgeit.io’s solution delivered transformative results for GoSec’s operations and attendee experience.
With access to detailed post-event analytics, GoSec was able to identify key areas for improvement, such as session popularity and attendee engagement, allowing them to plan future events with a data-backed approach.
The introduction of Badgeit.io’s cutting-edge technology at GoSec brought about significant long-term benefits, including:
In the end, Badgeit.io’s solution exceeded GoSec’s expectations, transforming the way they managed their hybrid conference.
The streamlined event registration, enhanced security, and rich analytics not only improved the attendee experience but also set a new benchmark for future cybersecurity conferences.
