QR Codes - How to make them work for your business
DATE: Thursday 10th November 2011
VENUE: Tigerlily, George Street, Edinburgh
PRESENTER: Jim Divine
We have been asking people for suggestions for topics for the New Media Breakfast and one in particular keeps coming up - QR Codes.
At the November New Media Breakfast we are delighted to announce that Jim Devine will share his knowledge and experience of QR Codes and demonstrate how they can be used for your business development in the future. We look forward to Jim's presentation and some of the case studies and examples that demonstrate the endless opportunities QR Codes offer businesses today.
In the words of Jim Divine, creator of the Cyberlogo the QR code phenomenon has been a long time coming. These little black and white patterned grids have been on our radar for a few years, but you may be surprised to know that they have been a part of everyday life in Japan for over a decade yet are only now getting the exposure and recognition they deserve in the west. Why has it taken us so long to embrace this technology and realise its marketing potential? More importantly how can it create value in your business?
Jim will show you how to incorporate QR codes into your marketing and day to day business through examples and case studies.
