Bizzabo Introduces New Generation of SmartBadges™ for Events

Building upon the success of its original SmartBadge, The Edge is a new lightweight, versatile badge with built-in wearable technology that offers enhanced event branding opportunities with unparalleled data collection, engagement, and networking opportunities.

One of the most noticeable upgrades is in the badge itself. The original SmartBadge featured a sleeve design with wearable tech on the front of the badge. The Edge is die-cut and made out of ABS plastic, which is more durable and environmentally friendly.

The wearable hardware device has been moved to the back of The Edge badge, leaving a small pill-shaped cutout on the front that glows with every interaction. This gives event organizers more space for unique branding on the front and back of the badge. In addition, The Edge design makes it easier to refurbish the wearable tech, improving overall sustainability.

"The Edge is a true next-generation SmartBadge — one we built based on feedback from our customers and their event-goers," said Bizzabo CEO and Co-founder Eran Ben-Shushan. "Customization and flexibility are key, and The Edge delivers that while continuing to improve the attendee experience and capturing rich, real-time behavioral insights."
