Cardeleine in Action: Best Practices and Smart Tips for Events

Events are the perfect opportunity to make valuable business connections - whether at trade shows, conferences, or exclusive business dinners. But too often, paper business cards get lost in a drawer, names are saved incorrectly, or promising leads are forgotten.

That’s where Cardeleine comes in - your smart sidekick for professional networking.

This guide shows you how to make the most of Cardeleine at events - to not only collect contacts but build lasting business relationships: efficient, modern, and effective.

  • All your contact info in one smartphone

  • Personalized profiles for different audiences - to make the best first impression

  • A modern, professional image that shows your digital mindset

Pro tip: Place your QR code on your phone’s lock screen to share your card in seconds.

2. Capture contacts in real time - never lose a lead

Cardeleine’s AI-powered scanner ensures you don’t miss a single opportunity:

After living and working in cities like New York and Los Angeles, I saw firsthand how important first impressions are - and how outdated the process of exchanging business contacts still is. Today, I'm the founder and CEO of Cardeleine.
