The Tamil Nadu government is going tech-savvy for the Global Investor Summit, which is slated for September in the state, to attract funds.
Delegates arriving for the summit will be able to exchange virtual business cards and even have real-time clarifications on policy and each registered delegate will also have an unique user identity.
Technologists are working on the same and the online database will form the foundation for future communications between delegates or with the organising bureaucrats through a mobile application.
Sources told Economic Times the state government is focusing on communications as many ambassadors from foreign counties had said the ease of reaching out to fellow delegates as a key enabler in business meets.
ET reported that the Rs 100-crore summit will monitor delegates' presence through Radio Frequency Identification, enabled by an electronic chip embedded in their delegate passes.
"It will help us manage the flow of the event better. The other new feature is the virtual business card, visitors can use the mobile app to scan the QR code integrated with the app to get a digital business card, so that people can still exchange coordinates after they run out of business cards," an official in charge of event management of the two-day meet told the financial daily.
The target investment for the summit is Rs 1 lakh crore.
The event was postponed from May to September as earlier only three partner nations were participating. Now, seven nations have committed to participate.
