Envi- ronmental impact of printed materials such as brochure, program updates, daily news, announcement flyers, tote bag content, session materials, evaluation surveys and more cannot be ignored. Water, CO2, and waste savings from elimi- nating printing which help in maintain green environment. We have a set-up registration committee to achieve such goals have considered an in- teractive USB that personalizes experience of our attendees needs while at the event and on the other hand is not just a digital version of a printed program. It is designed to give attendees access to updated in- formation when and wherever they need it in a personalized and convenient format without external limitations (such as requiring Wi-Fi) to work. We also incorporate a down- loadable wall that will cover but not limited to the scientific session, exhibitors products, scientific research abstracts and poster session. We believe that materials are one of the most valuable takeaways for the attendees. Using this technology in our meeting will generate a well- designed post show website with most conference and ex- hibition materials. Beside that it will be a great paperless re- source for attendees after the event and keeping most of the business information for the people that exchanged them in an updated and easily accessed format.
