Academic conferences
Packed programs across multiple rooms.
Apps for events, conferences, and trade shows
A conference with a printed program changes a session time, and nobody finds out. With an event app, every attendee has the updated agenda, knows which room the talk is in, gets alerts about changes, and connects with other attendees. We build the app for conferences, trade shows, and conventions, with QR code check-in and a dashboard so your team can post updates in seconds.
Updated:
- An always up-to-date agenda
- Fast check-in with a QR code
- Attendee networking
Your whole event on one screen

Event and conference app development FAQ
Can’t find your question?
Message an advisor and we’ll get back to you during business hours (Bogotá time, UTC-5).
How far in advance should I order the app?
Ideally, start several months ahead so there’s time for testing and for attendees to download it. If time is short, we can propose a web version with no download.
Do attendees have to download it?
Not always. We can deliver it as a progressive web app that opens from a link or QR code.
Can it be used for multiple events?
Yes. The dashboard lets you create new editions, each with its own agenda, speakers, and attendees.
How does QR code registration work?
Each registrant gets a unique code. At the entrance, your team scans it with a phone and attendance is recorded.
What else are event apps called?
People also search for it as an event app, conference app, event agenda app, or trade show app. It’s related to MVPs, minimum viable products, market validation, SaaS business models, and product roadmaps, which we review with you when your project needs them.
