"We were looking for a multi-functional conference app which would allow us to considerably cut down on our paper use. EventPilot by ATIV was the best meeting app solution we found for this,” said Pam Kluck, Executive Assistant, Mid-America Orthopaedic Association (MAOA). “ATIV’s expertise in creating medical meeting applications really set them apart; particularly how EventPilot approaches abstract inclusion and sub-sessions.”

MAOA estimates that by using the EventPilot conference app they will cut down on their use of paper by about 50%. This percentage is projected to rise with each year that the medical meeting app is implemented and more people recognize the convenience of the handy mobile guide. Using the paperless conference app, orthopedic professionals can make the most out of their attendance by filling each day and time block in the easy-to-use schedule builder with just a tap. Simple navigation, user friendly design, and powerful interactive search give access to all information, including research abstracts and papers, without requiring Wi-Fi.

The EventPilot conference app is accessible through many of the popular platforms, including iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, Android phones and tablets, and Kindle Fire.
