1. The pre-printed badge trap: logistics overhead and paper waste

Sorting paper badges alphabetically late at night before a summit is inefficient. Spelling mistakes discovered on site, last-minute registrations, and delegate permutations invariably disrupt morning entry.

On-demand thermal printing removes the chaos: scanning the attendee's mobile wallet or email QR code instantly produces a finished badge in 3 seconds.
