<div>Technology ensured that this year’s investment summit at Palace Grounds was managed better than the ones during previous two editions of Global Investors Meet.<br /><br />Three huge LED screens at the main hall during the inaugural session of the three-day summit helped audience view HD quality visuals behind the dais rather than the grainy images on television panels used during the previous editions.<br /><br />The five seminar halls also had LED screens flashing presentations by speakers. Acou-stics were also much better this time. Screens were also installed outside seminar halls to provide a teaser. <br /><br />Delegates were issued passes with bar codes which were scanned at the entrance and at the seminar. <br /><br />The government also utilised the digitally-enhanced user platform by launching a mobile app ahead of the summit. Officials said around 3,500 people had downloaded the app that provides information on investment opportunities in the State. <br /><br />For the first time, social media space was also utilised. The Invest Karnataka Twitter handle was launched to provide regular updates. <br /><br />However, the response was not on expected lines with the handle getting only around 900 followers. The proximity of the venue to the heart of the city also helped ensured access. <br /></div>
